The Boat Game will be published on 8 May 2026 and is now available for pre-order from Stewed Rhubarb.

Tract was published by The Well Review in 2023.

Tract is the second in our Well Review Editions Series by the poet, Siún Carden and handbound by Badly Made Books in Cork. This pamphlet interrogates the material of paper itself and its capacity for disembodied truth-telling and hearsay. Tract forensically unpacks our complicity in coverups to reveal a dazzling, imperfect and irresistible world.

Sarah Byrne (Editor, The Well Review)

The cover image is a detail from a drawing called ‘Flowing Land’ by Aimee LaBourne.
