About this ebook

In this issue, Oliver Bullough travels to Ukraine and Crimea in the wake of revolution; Kerry Howley writes about cage fighting and giving birth in Texas; Molly Brodak remembers her father, a compulsive gambler and failed bank robber; and Bella Pollen describes being visited - repeatedly - by an incubus. Here are fifteen takes on the human drive to possess - a person, a home, a territory - and the many ways we become possessed - by ideas, by desires, by spirits.

Also featuring fiction by Marc Bojanowski, Patrick DeWitt, Greg Jackson, Daisy Jacobs, Alan Rossi, Hanan al-Shaykh and Deb Olin Unferth; along with poetry by Rae Armantrout, Anglica Freitas and Jillian Weise; and Photography by Max Pinckers, with an introduction by Sonia Faleiro.
