Published twice a year, Gutter is an award-winning printed journal for exceptional new writing from contributors living in Scotland and around the world.
What grabbed us about this issue…
Issue 26 opens with fiction from Saltire Award-winning author Ely Percy and we enjoyed how her work sets a strong tone for the issue. The special showcase of poetry from the Indian Subcontinent is worth seeking out alongside it. Giving a regional tradition its own dedicated space within a Scottish literary journal is a generous editorial decision. If you’re interested in contemporary poetry from beyond the usual anglophone circuit, the interview with Sudeep Sen gives the showcase a useful anchor.
Who’s Gutter for?
Gutteris to reach for when you’re looking for a mix of traditional literary fiction, genre fiction, poetry, and personal essays in one sitting.
