Beautiful cover - and title! Excited to be part of this collection, as the translator for Laila Hashemi's "Second-hand Life". Second-hand clothes, second-hand shoes, second-hand hearts.

Generally, we only pay for work that's published in the print magazine (not online). But we would like to support more online work, esp. from our Gaza-based contributors. If you can.

The publicly funded arts sector is struggling. If you appreciate literature, art, theatre, music, now is the time. Speak about it. Share it. Take a friend. Buy or borrow that book. And please. Please. *Fill out that feedback form* so funders can see their investment is worthwhile
