Passages of Time

'Passages of Time' presents a range of shortlisted entries submitted to the 2023 Cheshire Prize for Literature. Reading through this collection of short stories, children's literature, poems and scripts, an overarching theme of time comes to the fore. Whether it is ageing, coming of age, new beginnings, future development or historical comparisons, the topics of the writing included within this anthology show a collective focus on who we have been, who we may become, and what makes us who we are.
