HEAT Series 3 Number 6, in fuschia pink, marks our first year back in print. It opens with an essay on the nature of time by Fiona Wright; followed by a meditation on childhood, grief, and freedom by Hanne Ørstavik (trans. Martin Aitken); a sequence of poems about the death of a child by Zang Di (trans. Eleanor Goodman); insights on fatherhood by Oscar Schwartz; some surprising ceramic post-it notes by artist Kenny Pittock; and a long essay by Amitava Kumar about the ideological shifts across decades in a community in Khunti, near Ranchi, in eastern India. First published in 1996, HEAT is a literary magazine dedicated to publishing Australian and overseas writers of the highest quality. HEAT’s third series (2022-) is edited by Alexandra Christie and designed by award-winning designer Jenny Grigg.Recent praise for HEAT:‘So slender and elegant, nothing wasted, nothing grandiose - and beautiful work.’ — Helen Garner‘HEAT magazine was a trailblazer from the day it was launched...[The new series is] still dedicated to publishing non-Anglophone views of the world, alternatives to the mainstream and points of view that are both thought-provoking and expressed in high literary style.’ — Openbook, NSW State Library Magazine‘A very beautiful and stylish object...long may this new series of HEAT continue!' — Sarah Holland-Batt‘I welcome the return of HEAT.
