It doesn't matter where they stand in the art pyramid, or whether they are — or aren't — known and recognized for their writing. The publication brings together self-taught and academic figures, end-of-the-world literature, hopeful reflections, political essays on sexuality, sharp wit and substantial paragraphs, contemporary ribald auto-fiction or poetry: you name it. Each issue explores the plurality of voices and forms of contemporary expression. Writing becomes a space for free experimentation, supported by careful guidance and page layout designed text by text. For this new edition, Ethan Assouline and Gaia Vincensini are invited to collaborate with Pauline Coquart in the design of the publication, casting of authors and creation of works.
