About
The London Reader brings you a diversity of thought-provoking and engaging perspectives in contemporary literature. Featuring both up-and-coming and established writers, the fiction, creative non-fiction, and poetry in each issue seeks to both engage and entertain readers around a single topic. In this fashion, The London Reader is unique among literary magazines. Each issue, like an art gallery, is curated by an expert or academic around a central theme or writer. Issues of the London Reader are cooperatively owned by all collaborators and contributors as part of the Cooperative Design: Word initiative. A portion of revenue from each issue is donated to a charity of the curator’s choice.
Important: Lengths for themed submissions may vary. Please see guidelines for details.
