eto, Volume One

by Lloyd Jones

First published 2013

This collection brings together fresh voices from Wales and Welsh America in a literary anthology that spans both sides of the Atlantic. The Welsh word "eto" carries multiple meanings: again, yet, nevertheless. These meanings thread through stories and poems by established writers like Mike Jenkins and Lloyd Jones alongside emerging talents including Thomas Morris and Gaynor Madoc Leonard. The contributors explore themes that connect Welsh communities across continents. Phillip Stephen Rowlands collaborates with Ceri Shaw and Gaabriel Becket, founders of the AmeriCymru social network and West Coast Eisteddfod festival, to create this bridge between traditional Welsh literature and contemporary Welsh-American expression. The anthology features work by poets Paul Steffan Jones and Saul Hughes, plus fiction writers Chris Keil, Phil Rowlands, Jude Johnson, Jean Mead, Glyn Scott, and John Good.
