The Research Club, this year's anthology from the frightfully talented students of the University of Glasgow's acclaimed Creative Writing course, is being launched on Thursday, 27 September, at the Waterstone's on Sauchiehall Street.

And a very reasonably priced anthology containing the future stars of British literature available for purchase!'
The launch is at 6.30pm and there is a post-launch reception at the Hetherington Research Club on University Gardens from 8.30pm. And if you're thinking, 'That's a lot of information to take in, I wish it could be presented in the form of a convenient map," then good news!
