Anna Kirwin is a writer and artist, living in London, but dreaming of the Arctic. Her last published piece explored the strange, ethereal glow of European cities by night, but more generally, her recent work deals with the connections between language, thought and time. She sees light in the darkness.
“Xavier’s 3rd Person Biographical Statement Before Editing”

Medieval pottery at the
University of Igalcio. After
A colourful career
As a part-time juggler/
Occasional small-scale architect/
Weekend bouncer at
Downtown discotheque, ‘Flamingoz’,
He turned to Geography.
Finding it unfulfilling,
He jettisoned the
Oxbow lakes, the igneous rock and
Decided to express himself
In verse
Instead.
Xavier has published work in ‘Fens Fortnightly’,

For All’ and ‘Pineapple Daily’. He now
Lives with his bullmastiff,
Graham,
In a bungalow, just outside of

In ladders.
From the Editor:
We hope that readers receive In Parentheses as a medium through which the evolution of human thought can be appreciated, nurtured and precipitated. It will present a dynamo of artistic expression, journalism, informal analysis of our daily world, entertainment of ideas considered lofty and criticism of today’s popular culture. The featured content does not follow any specific ideology except for that of intellectual expansion of the masses.
Founded in late 2011, In Parentheses prides itself upon analysis of the current condition of intelligence in the minds of these young people, and building a hypothesis for one looming question: what comes after Post-Modernism?
The idea for this magazine stems from a simple conversation regarding the aforementioned question, which drew out the need to identify our generation’s place in literary history.
