Issue 28 explores the politics of domesticity, the confusion of desire, and dreams of mysterious strangers, flying over borders, and living under a seat in an abandoned movie theater like a desperate, hunched troll. All that, plus tropical maladies, suicidal impulses, sexual obsession, decaying memories, stolen trucks, honking cars, creepy houses, electric crickets, humiliation, and writers who die too young. It’s a vulnerable issue — truthful and deluded.

Featuring new short fiction, poetry, CNF, translations, and art from Cástulo Aceves (translated by Michael Langdon), Victoria Ballesteros, Nikki Barnhart, Sophie Bebeau, Israel Bonilla, Ellis Elliott, Vilde Fastvold (translated by Wendy H. Gabrielsen), Bo Huston, J.G. Jesman, Marream Krollos, Edward Lee, Marina Mariasch (translated by Ellen Jones), Blue Neustifter, Evan Nicholls, Dale Peck, Matthew Roberson, Evan Williams, and David Wojciechowski.

Your Impossible Voice #31 finds the doomsday clock ticking down twenty days from the apocalypse. It’s chock-full of liars, the lost, and the lonely, floating in fog and hungry for cake, eggs, and kink. All that plus Allen Ginsberg, Frida Kahlo, and a magnificent tower of giraffes.

Featuring work by Joshua Escobar, Adelheid Duvanel (translated by Tyler Schroeder), Tanya Žilinskas, Sumitra Singam, Jean-Luc Raharimanana (translated by Tom Tulloh), Arlene Tribbia, Addison Zeller, Mehdi M. Kashani, Katherine Elizabeth Seltzer, Jane Snyder, Charles O. Smith, Taro Williams, Joanna Theiss, Kirsten Kaschock, Gerónimo Sarmiento Cruz, Steve Castro, Linda Wojtowick, and Ann Pedone.
