Dominique Literary Magazine About Our mission is to discover and publish exceptional and spirited writing that speaks to your lived experience. We publish fiction that is beautiful, truthful, and willing to experiment with form and subject. While we do not discriminate in who we publish, we are particularly interested in debut authors and voices who are not already represented in other literary magazines. As readers of Roberto Bolaño, Han Kang, Octavia Butler, J.M. Coetzee, and Oe Kenzaburo, we appreciate dangerous work dealing with taboo subjects that you may have had trouble placing elsewhere. But while we are hard to offend, we also have a hard line for what we tolerate. We will not read work that glorifies or revels in violence, hate speech, and any form of discrimination — and this list is not exhaustive. Please consider before submitting any work whether you are comfortable with it being read by people who are similar to the characters you depict.
