Our second edition, Divine Comedy, takes inspiration from the architecture of hell, purgatory, and paradise—not as fixed places but as emotional, cultural, and deeply personal states. This issue explores the spaces where punishment blurs into transformation, where suffering becomes language, and where transcendence is never clean, never simple.

Expect work that is indulgent, irreverent, and searching. Pieces that question who gets saved, who gets damned, and who decides.
