McSweeney's Issue 75 (McSweeney's Quarterly Concern)

McSweeney's Issue 75 (McSweeney's Quarterly Concern)af Dave Eggers
Bag om McSweeney's Issue 75 (McSweeney's Quarterly Concern)

In a June 2023 submission call for new work by never-before-published writers, McSweeney's received thousands of submissions in a single month. The stories in this issue (our seventy-fifth, an almost unfathomable milestone) are the crème de la crème of that bounty. Guest-edited by longtime McSweeney's editor Eli Horowitz, our seventy-fifth issue contains ten radiant stories, each published as an individual booklet with stunning art by ten different artists. All ten booklets are collected inside a beautiful and sturdy and elaborately foil-stamped dossier-like case, which opens (rather extravagantly) to reveal a series of accordion pockets--each one containing a pair of booklets--and snaps shut (rather satisfyingly) with a magnetic closure. In these brilliant literary debuts there are fish guts, meteor hunters, military coups, ghost towns, and fake orphans. The stories, whose authors and settings span continents, dazzle in their originality of vision and voice. They announce themselves with bravado, excellence, and energy. In his introduction to the issue, Horowitz writes, "I'm not sure what set of circumstances allowed these wizards to escape previous publication--youth? shyness? vast conspiracies?--but the wait is over: they have arrived." Get this issue for eternal bragging rights of being present at the ground floor of each of these ten writers' sure-to-be-storied futures. Ever changing, each issue of the quarterly is completely redesigned (there have been hardcovers and paperbacks, an issue with two spines, an issue with a magnetic binding, an issue that looked like a bundle of junk mail, and an issue that looked like a sweaty human head), but always brings you the very best in new literary fiction.
