Locust Review #2 * coming soon!
You cannot stop us. We are legion. We are Locust.
Our second issue will be coming back from the printers soon, and it contains a new passel of the bizarre and bombastic, the cosmically communist. You know you want to read. You know you want to subscribe.
A copy of Locust Review #2 will give you art from Adam Ray Adkins, Leslie Lea, Anupam Roy, James Walsh, Sambaran Das, John McVay, plus a continuation of Tish Markley and Adam Turl’s Born Again Labor Museum (BALM). There will be poetry and fiction from Alexander Billet, Tish Markley, Adam Marks, Frank Fucile, Lane Powell, Mike Linaweaver, Adam Turl, Evan Edwards and many others.
We are running two interviews in Locust #2: one with Kentucky-based visual artist Johnny Hammond, and with Mark Miller, author of Librarian At the End of the World. Answers from our “Irrealist Worker Survey” will also be featured in the issue.
Finally, we are running a non-fiction contribution from our German comrade Sebastian Schuller, who dissects the toll of capitalist realism on German society and its activism. Insightful, maddening, and urgent, it illustrates what the stakes are and aims to paint a picture of both the stakes and a face of the enemy.
We also have work in the new issue inspired by Nina Simone, as well as the cheap, disposable errata of evangelism. In other words, the projects of Locust are expanding, and we are eager to share the results with you.
But of course, we cannot continue to expand, deliver, make gloriously weird this fetid world around us without support from you, the gloriously weird reader. So we ask you now to please subscribe through our Patreon, which will get you issue two and all issues going forward for the duration of your support. Locust, we have found through the response to our first issue and through feedback, is a publication fulfilling a need on our burgeoning radical left, and we hope you’ll agree and be part of building it.
So subscribe. Do it. Do it or we’ll eat your children.
