A literary magazine made from texts that haven’t found a home in other publications, Offal is a brilliantly dark and distinctive new title. Designers Richard Turley and Julia Schäfer used Microsoft Word to lay out the pages, “driven by a desire for limitations in an over-stimulated world”, and creating a fittingly stark and anarchic atmosphere for the magazine’s stories, poems, and literary experiments.
In this issue:
- Homelessness and the collapse of British towns and cities
- Flat-pack Britain is skewered in mock-epic poem An Alboniad
- One man’s bitter, mescal-driven bid for revenge in Mexico
- An opera by Darren Cunningham, aka Actress
- And a business proposal for Thom Yorke
