Quote of the Day
British publishing always needs the supplement of such enterprises as Carcanet -- beautifully independent, skilfully managed, and by people with exceptional literary taste. It gives one heart that there are such people and such a press, and that they are too resourceful to succumb to the climate.
Sir Frank Kermode

ParenthesisEdited by Ra Page
Paperback
ISBN: 978 0 954828 07 3 Imprint: Comma Press Published: February 2006 216 x 135 mm 220 pages Publisher: Comma Press
A sequel to the acclaimed Bracket anthology, Parenthesis continues Comma's on-going commitment to championing work from new writers. As with Bracket, this anthology will be the first to publish the literary 'names' of the future. Bracket was described by Time Out magazine as 'packed with excellent pieces, just as Comma and Hyphen were before it' and praised for demonstrating 'not only an extraordinary level of commitment to the short story but also an outstanding consistency of good taste and sound judgement'. The Independent on Sunday wrote of Bracket, 'Such collections are rare, and high quality ones rarer still, but Page has sourced only the finest material and it's pleasing to discover that, for the near future at least, short fiction is in good hands.'
