Bandit Queen Press

announces the release of GOOD WORKS
A paperback collection of novel excerpts, short stories, memoirs, poems, song lyrics, original sketches, paintings and photographs by English-speaking women living in Denmark. www.banditqueenpress.com
“Refreshingly varied, yet with a common thread….10 women, all accomplished writers, celebrate in 10 individual voices the expatriate experience – in prose, poetry, images and song. A valuable, and enjoyable, addition to the literature of displacement and assimilation.”
Heather Spears, award-winning Canadian poet
“To leave one’s home country can be an exhilarating and even frightening adventure that cries out for expression. Good Works puts words to the expatriate experience in all its frustrations and all its exhilarations.”
Thomas E. Kennedy, author of The Copenhagen Quartet; Advisory Editor, The Literary Review
“Compelling writing; a refreshing collection … leaves a wonderful taste on the literary palate”.
Lennox Raphael, journalist, poet and playwright.

For nearly two decades, the American Women’s Club has sponsored a group for writers who wish to hone their craft in English. Publication of this anthology by women from a half-dozen countries around the world, is made possible by a cultural award from the club and personal contributions.

Udgivelsen af GOOD WORKS falder sammen med 75års-dagen for oprettelsen af American Women’s Club i Denmark, en almennyttig organisation, der tilbyder socialt samvær og støtte til sine medlemmer, hvad enten de de bor permanent eller midlertidigt i Danmark, og som arbejder på at fremme den almindelige forståelse mellem USA og Danmark. I næsten to årtier har American Women’s Club sponsoreret en gruppe forfattere, som ønsker at forfine deres metier gennem det engelske sprog. Udgivelsen af denne antologi af kvinder fra et halvt dusin lande verden over blev gjort mulig ved tildeling af en kulturpris fra klubben og gennem personlige bidrag.
