Bitterfuels is an independent magazine that mixes
intelligent nonfiction (and a handful of poetry) with
beautiful artwork and design.
In the latest issue Sir Philip Gibbs writes about
freedom of the press during wartime, Bobby
McElver fights a virtual drum machine, J.F.K Hecker
analyzes the impact of the Black Plague on modern
Europe and The Assault Poetry Unit kicks off a
bombing campaign in New Orleans.
A copy editor lays down the law, an old man uses
too many exclamation marks and a snowman gets
his picture taken with a naked lady -- Vol. 5 is 62 pages
of smart, interesting writing.
