iExile About iExile was founded in 2007 by Jaia Papitz as a platform for literature, dissent, and independent publishing. It began as a space for poetry, prose, satire, and other work that did not belong to the softened logic of mainstream culture.Literature should not arrive dressed like a startup, a catalog, or a museum gift shop. We publish what returns from silence and what refuses to stay buried.Today, iExile returns as both archive and living platform. It publishes books, poems, translations, plays & screenplays, satire, short stories, fragments, and selected texts that resist flattening, trend-thinking, and cultural obedience.Some of its earlier body will return through the restored archive. New work will continue to be added alongside it.
