Exeter College alumnus publishes poetry in new literary journal

Exeter College alumnus Saul Lowndes Britton (2016, English Language & Literature) has recently had a selection of his poems published in Catachresis, a new Cambridge-based literary journal showcasing a range of exciting contemporary writing. 

The journal brings together work from a variety of writers, offering a platform for new literary voices. Carefully researched and thoughtfully produced, Catachresis celebrates creative expression and provides an opportunity for emerging poets to share their work with a wider audience. 

Britton, who is continuing to develop his writing practice and bring his poetry to new readers, was delighted to have several of his poems selected for publication. He praised the journal’s thoughtful approach, describing it as expertly and lovingly crafted, with a diverse selection of exciting work. 

Reflecting on his time at Exeter College and the influence of his studies on his writing, Britton said: “My time at Oxford was personally very turbulent, but my writing practice owes a lot to the education I received there.” 

His publication in Catachresis marks a welcome step in his ongoing journey as a poet, as he continues to develop his work and seek opportunities to share it with a wider readership. 

Britton’s poems can be read in Catachresis, available online at catachresis.
