Gathering brings together essays by women of colour across the UK in writing about their relationships with nature, including neurodiversity, mental health, academia, colonialism, whiteness, music, hiking and more.

Gathering brings together essays by women of colour across the UK writing about their relationships with nature, in a genre long-dominated by male, white, middle-class writers. In redressing this imbalance, this moving collection considers climate justice, neurodiversity, mental health, academia, inherited histories, colonialism, whiteness, music, hiking and so much more.

These personal, creative, and fierce essays will broaden both conversations and horizons about our living world, encouraging readers to consider their own experience with nature and their place within it.

Durre Shahwar is a writer and the Co-Editor of Gathering, an essay anthology on nature, climate, the landscape by women of colour. She is currently working on her first sole-authored book. It is a narrative non-fiction book on the themes of language, identity, and belonging as a Pakistani-Welsh person. Nasia Sarwar-Skuse is a writer and PhD candidate in Creative Writing at Swansea University. Nasia was awarded the Writers’ Bursary by Literature Wales in 2019. Her work has appeared in a number of publications.
