‟Shawlman is a literary discussion project on "groundbreaking" literature, and its position in and on reality, life, and art.
‟In the fields of fiction, poetry, and theatre, Shawlman contributors analyse, discuss, and deconstruct literary works until the essence of said work is laid bare. Furthermore, on our blog Educ contributors will be sharing their experiences with the teaching of literatures in English at universities across the globe.
‟We're currently still building the website, and getting everything ready for the launch.”
