Desiderium: [des-i-deer-ee-uhm]: an ardent longing, as for something lost.Do you yearn for the past? A loved one lost? Yesterday's comforts? A nostalgic youth?Do you fight the present? Endure the elements, brave the plague, take a life to save another, a brother or yourself?Do you anticipate love, long for freedom or plot revenge?In the end, our desires will make us...or break us.Featuring:Marília Bonelli, A. Howitt, J. H. Schiller, Anne Johnston, Gabrielle Gold, J. Levesque, Thomas Brown, Cody Bok, Stephen Woodfall, Val George, Leigh Adamkiewicz, Autumn Shah and J. Powell OgdenDesiderium is a collection of short stories and poems written by established and emerging writers of the Dublin Creative Writers Cooperative.Spanning a range of genres, styles and perspectives, these works probe the depths of love and despair arising from unfettered longing in worlds both real and imagined.
