The Argyle Literary Magazine See other projects related to this listing. About The Argyle Literary Magazine (The Argyle for short) philosophy is simple: Good writing should be celebrated not segregated. We don’t follow a particular aesthetic nor do we prefer a certain “type” of literature or art. What we do care about is the artistry and impact of a piece: How we are touched, changed, even shaken to our cores by the images and words that wait for us just around the corners of proverbial pages.The Argyle seeks to blur the lines between genres and strips the labels off your “little darlings,” offering an immersive experience of words and images that feeds the mind, stirs the soul, and disturbs the quiet of blank spaces. Our content is motley…and we wouldn’t have it any other way.
