Cove Park’s International Literature Residency supports an international writer at a key stage in their work. We offer the writer time and space to pursue a project or new ways of working free from the pressure of specified outcomes, in a changing community of artists across a range of art-forms, career stages and nationalities. Previous International Writers include Margaret Atwood, Anne Carson, Fred D’Aguiar,  Christos Tsiolkas and Yelena Moskovich.
