Join us for the launch of PROTOTYPE 5, the fifth instalment of Prototype’s annual anthology, at The Ivy House, Nunhead, on Thursday 20 July. Free to attend and all very welcome.

This summer party at The Ivy House will feature informal readings from some of the contributors and a well-stocked book table. The Ivy House is a treasured south London pub which you’ll find at 40 Stuart Road, SE15 3BE. Nunhead is the nearest station.

The annual PROTOTYPE anthology is a space for new work, open to all and free from formal guidelines or restrictions. This issue features new work and previews of forthcoming books by a number of Prototype authors, and introduces an exciting list of new contributors.
