A first look at our new series design for Fictional Objects!
Common by Nikolai Duffy follows its main character as he comes to terms with the circumstances of his life - a reflection on solitude, freedom, responsibility, and the repeated attempt to transcend the legacies of the past.
Abi stands in front of a wall of ivy leaves that are turning from green to red. She is wearing a v-neck paisley blouse that is navy with a blur, red and purple patterned print. She is looking off to the side and is also wearing gold dangly earrings. She has shoulder length brown-blonde hair.
The Tyne Bridge is pictured in the centre of the frame over a still, reflective River Tyne in Newcastle, UK. Either side of the bridge are buildings with a warmer glow as the sun rises. The words Northern Voices in white lettering feature in the bottom centre of the image.
'I love writing for myself but in some ways supporting others is even better.'
Professor and novelist @abicurtiswriter.bsky.social is on Northern Voices this week discussing her novel The Headland @goldsmithspress.bsky.social, academia, creativity and more.
