Literary magazines: here are which ones to read and why
Many of the authors we love have made their debut in the pages of a literary magazine, selected by unsuspected editors who can recognize a good pen before anyone else.

She will have the task of interpreting what is happening and rebuilding a more aware society. To keep your mind busy and reading, we recommend some independent magazines. We learn slowness from paper.
