Archipelago is one of the most important and influential literary magazines of the last
twenty years. Running to twelve editions, it was edited by Andrew McNeillie, with the
assistance later of James McDonald Lockhart, and began as an attempt to reimagine the
relationships between the islands of Ireland and Britain. Archipelago has brought together
established and emerging artists in creative conversations that have transformed the study
of islands, coasts and waterways. It journeys from the Shetlands to Cornwall, from the
Aran Islands to the coast of Yorkshire, tracing the cultures of diverse zones through some
of the best in contemporary writing about place and people.This collection gathers poetry, prose and visual art in clusters grouped around the Irish
and British archipelago, with contributions from an array of significant artists. It includes
newly commissioned work as well as an interview between Andrew McNeillie and
Robert Macfarlane on the development of Archipelago across the years.
