Celebrating Stories
We invite you to join us for our Summer 2026 launch at Café Duello this Monday, September 14th from 5-7pm! We will be announcing the shortlist for the Kingfisher Poetry Prize live, and launching Issues 50 and 51 with readings from Susan Pieters, Jane Young, Isabel Harvest, KL Shilling, Niloufar-Lily Soltani, Jude Neale, Renée Sarojini Saklikar, JM Landels, Sierra Louie, and Mel Anastasiou! Then, to close out the night, join us for an open mic which you can sign up for here!
Settle in with a coffee, listen to live readings of poetry and prose, and peruse copies of Pulp Literature, including Issue 51 which is coming hot off the presses! Plus, you will be able to preview JM Landels‘ upcoming collection, Ilmar Songs.
We hope to see you there!
