Timothy McSweeney's Quarterly Concern (Issue 82) Details
The latest issue of McSweeney’s National Magazine Award–winning quarterly comes to you housed inside an M-shaped, accordion-style, joined-at-the-back double-hardcover, folding and unfolding with art by Rob Sato to reveal a world that expands when the book is open and contracts when the book is closed. Inside this architectural feat of a book-art object is a stunning work of never-before-translated fiction by Alejandro Zambra; alongside dazzling new literature from Kenan Orhan, Deb Olin Unferth, and Hannah Kingsley-Ma; letters by Halle Butler, John Wray, and Massoud Hayoun; an Odyssean, toad-centric, natural-wine-drunk novella by Tom Bubul; a twelve-page, two-book-wide fever dream of a comic by Matt Panuska that can be read only if and when both books are open at once; a twenty-four-page booklet of additional drawings by Sato; and so much more. Breathe in the sweet late-spring air, and let this mysterious puzzle box of an issue envelop you.
