Worms is a biannual ‘female-led print publishing platform dedicated to amplifying the voices of writers marginalised within the literary world.’
This latest—and inaugural full colour—edition of Worms doubles down on its ‘central tenet’: revering the radical potential of ‘writing as protest, as remedy, as subterfuge, as escape.’ American activist, artist, and author Tourmaline is the cover star of this issue, featured in conversation with editor P. Eldridge inside. Elsewhere, expect contributions from Namwali Serpell, Alexis Pauline Gumbs, Jamieson Webster, Wayne Koestenbaum, Sophie Robinson, Missouri Williams, Robert Glück, Bambi Lake, and more. Plus, flick to the back for the team’s current book recommendations—from Ben Lerner’s eagerly awaited new novel ‘Transcription’, to a subversive compendium of fairy tales by Angela Carter.
