Bold, playful and proudly Welsh,Folding Rock is published three times a year and takes a different approach to the traditional literary magazine.
What grabbed us about this issue…
Despite its front cover, music itself is not necessarily the main event in this issue. Instead, Folding Rock observes how music is intertwined with key moments and feelings in our lives. Rather than taking centre stage, it acts as an ‘Undersong’ that mirrors the ‘rich, lyrical, sonorous and evocative’ tone of Anglo-Welsh writing. We enjoy how music becomes a theme that writers visit to articulate a feeling or moment. Whether it’s the weight of expectations and moments of self-doubt, or a means of unity, security and celebration; music finds a way to underpin each chaotic moment life throws our way.
Who’s Folding Rock for?
Folding Rock offers an open space for writers to experiment with form, from essays and interviews to fiction. You can tell it’s rooted in its aim to support and develop new Welsh talent, while giving space to a range of voices and styles. This would suit you if you’re interested in literary magazines and are open to discovering new writing. It’s one to dip into when you’re in the mood for something a little different.
