Telling Stories of Brighton & Hove
For 50 years, QueenSpark Books has enabled the people of Brighton & Hove to tell their stories.
Our archive of over 110 books documents the changing face of the city from the early-20th Century to the present day – from the ‘Poor Dispensary’ and slum housing, through two World Wars, and up to the creative development and cultural diversity that, for many, defines the city. Telling Stories of Brighton & Hove incorporates a selection of pieces from the archive alongside new writing, following a public callout in Autumn 2021.
These stories – of protest, pubs, hardship, LGBTQ rights, cinema-going and clubbing, Black history, strikes, migration, and having a cup of tea – are of the people and places that go to make Brighton & Hove what it is today.
