“We are gathering authors, poets, spoken-words artists, musicians and performers to express themselves and share their works about Bristol and The Handmaid’s Tale.

“Do you want to declare prose about dystopia? Speak in rhymes for feminism? Write a pamphlet or a song on how the city we live in makes you feel? We want to hear from you!”

Those interested in taking part should email their pieces to manager.bristolgalleries@waterstones.com
