Review of Postgraduate English Studies
Welcome to ROPES
ROPES is a literary journal produced annually by MA students at the University of Galway. We are currently working on the journal’s 33rd edition! Our team is dedicated to showcasing a broad and inclusive range of work by providing a platform to exhibit literature and art. Our journal has been home to the work of bright, emerging creatives, as well as pieces from more established writers such as Mike McCormack, Colm Tóibín, and Nuala O’Connor.
Each year, we produce an inspired collection in aid of our chosen charity. The beneficiary for issue 33 is the Galway Rape Crisis Centre, a nonprofit organisation that works tirelessly towards lessening the impact and incidence of sexual violence and abuse throughout local communities. Learn more about GRCC's vital work here.
Please consider making a donation through our GoFundMe page in support of ROPES' production and our charitable partner GRCC. For a small non-profit publication like ours, every donation makes a huge difference!
