About

A special display at the Brontë Parsonage Museum.

Wandering Imaginations is a collection of new fantasy and science-fiction stories created for Bradford 2025 by four emerging writers – Kristina Diprose and CM Govender from Bradford, Akorfa Dawson and Peggy Kere Osman from Ghana – that take partial inspiration from the imaginary worlds created by the Brontës in childhood. This special exhibition at Brontë Parsonage Museum presents the four stories in audiobook form – accompanied by animations and illustrations created for Bradford 2025 by Fran Haslam, a Yorkshire-based artist, and Karen Kutame, an artist based in Ghana.

These four stories were written following residencies at Pa Gya! A Literary Festival in Accra and the Brontë Parsonage Museum in Haworth. As well as the stories themselves, the exhibition shows how the writers took inspiration from the imaginary worlds created by the Brontë siblings as children in Haworth. 

Supported by the British Council.
