Author: Alexandra Christie (ed.)
First published in 1996, HEAT is a literary journal dedicated to publishing Australian and overseas writers of the highest quality. This latest issue offers new writing from Glenn Bech, Chris Fleming, Harriet Armstrong, Isabella Trimboli, Hasib Hourani and Michal Tallo.Opening the issue, Glenn Bech’s ‘Julius’, translated by Hazel Evans, continues HEAT magazine’s surprisingly extensive history of publishing Danish writers. Also in this issue, philosopher Chris Fleming, reflecting on his boyhood, writes about the power of childhood obsession and its relation to adult OCD: ‘the oddest of superstitions – a delusion simultaneously seen through and believed’. British writer Harriet Armstrong offers a short story about an analytical young woman preoccupied by a splinter. Essayist and critic Isabella Trimboli returns to HEAT with her fiction debut ‘Miss Carousel’ – a surreal, gothic tale written under the spell of the late Hungarian-American writer Susan Taubes. Ahead of his debut book released with Giramondo in September, Hasib Hourani peers into the dark corners of urban spaces across three minimalist poems– on the night bus, in underpasses, inside vents, under couches. And Slovak writer Michal Tallo’s story about a group of friends on a weekend away together sits somewhere between fever dream and reality.
ISBN 9781922725141. Giramondo Publishing. pb. 94 pages.
