Description

HEAT Series 3 Number 6, in fuschia pink, marks our first year back in print. It opens with an essay on the nature of time by Fiona Wright; followed by a meditation on childhood, grief, and freedom by Hanne rstavik (trans. Martin Aitken); a sequence of poems about the death of a child by Zang Di (trans. Eleanor Goodman); insights on fatherhood by Oscar Schwartz; some surprising ceramic post-it notes by artist Kenny Pittock; and a long essay by Amitava Kumar about the ideological shifts across decades in a community in Khunti, near Ranchi, in eastern India.

First published in 1996, HEAT is a literary magazine dedicated to publishing Australian and overseas writers of the highest quality. HEATs third series (2022) is edited by Alexandra Christie and designed by award-winning designer Jenny Grigg.

Recent praise for HEAT:

So slender and elegant, nothing wasted, nothing grandiose and beautiful work. Helen Garner

HEAT magazine was a trailblazer from the day it was launched[The new series is] still dedicated to publishing non-Anglophone views of the world, alternatives to the mainstream and points of view that are both thought-provoking and expressed in high literary style.
