Fiction

For avid readers and the uninitiated alike, this is a chance to reengage with classic literature and to stay inspired and entertained. The concept of the magazine is simple: the first half is a long-form interview with a notable book fanatic and the second half explores one classic work of literature from an array of surprising and invigorating angles. The coolest girl in a band, Kim Gordon, graces our spring issue. She talks books, music, writing, art and bad tv habits. While Kakuzo Okakura's The Book of Tea inspires our journey from the tea houses of Japan to the florists of Paris and over to the prisons of England. Read this issue with the perfect brew.
