How many ways can you be set free?
This original collection of short stories and flash fiction was written by students from The Priory School, Hitchin, for World Book Day 2022.
Delve into the diverse genres and themes explored in their work, including prison escapes, short stories about addiction, and tales told from the perspectives of outcasts and loners as they rise up against their oppressors.
So sit down, try to relax, and escape into their fantasy world. Set your imagination free.
Set Free is dedicated to the countless young readers and writers in the UK and around the globe, many of whom have faced mental and physical challenges since the global pandemic hit in 2021 and locked down societies around the world. In particular, these stories reflect the experiences of students who suddenly found themselves kept at home and unable to connect physically with other students except through cyberspace. Even throughout the writing process of this anthology, uncertainties remain; however, the resilience of this generation is a testament to the strength of the human character and the stories based around the theme of breaking free could not be more apt for 2022 and beyond.
