The Paris Review

For “the good writers and good poets, the non-drumbeaters and non-axe grinders. So long as they're good.” We are a quarterly literary magazine that was founded in 1953.

Successful satire has to be good the day after tomorrow.

Imagine Wanting Only This by Kristen Radtke

We’re incredibly excited to announce that we will be publishing Imagine Wanting Only This by Kristen Radtke next year.

Imagine Wanting Only This is a haunting graphic memoir about leaving, and those left behind.

After the sudden death of a beloved uncle, Kristen becomes obsessed with the abandoned places – derelict Midwestern mining towns, an Icelandic village preserved in volcanic ash, Cambodian temples reclaimed by jungle.

At the same time, she examines what it means to be an artist, to be hungry for the next experience, to be always in transit.

We can’t wait to share our edition with you.

Imagine Wanting Only This by Kristen Radtke will be published by Jonathan Cape in April 2018
