Fragments of Chiaroscuro

This project is believed to be defunct. (March 2017)

About

Fragments of Chiaroscuro was formed and founded in the summer of 2015 by a group of enthusiastic literature-appreciators. Run by volunteers, Fragments is an independent and non-profit online magazine dedicated to poetry, prose, and art. It functions under the idea that the world is not just black-and-white, but filled with grey. Fragments hopes that its submissions will explore that theme.
