It doesn't matter where they stand in the art pyramid, or whether they are—or are not—known and recognised for their writing. The publication brings together self-taught and academic people, end-of-the-world type literature, hopeful reflections, political essays on sexuality, effective turns of phrase and substantial paragraphs, licentious contemporary auto-fictions or poems: you name it. Each issue explores the plurality of contemporary voices and forms of expression. Writing becomes a space of free experimentation, supported by careful guidance and page design thought through text by text. For this new edition, Ethan Assouline and Gaia Vincensini are invited to collaborate with Pauline Coquart on the design of the edition, the casting of authors as well as the creation of works.
