Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ‘I welcome the return of HEAT. Writers and readers alike will revel in its daring audacity, bold exploration and innovative celebration of literature.’ — Alexis Wright Bringing together new and established voices, HEAT Series 3 Number 3 roams the world, taking us from Cambridge to Canberra via Mexico. Among the contributors are Aniela Rodríguez, with a piercing tale of biblical revenge translated by Elizabeth Bryer, Kate Crowcroft, sharing an essay on the history of the tongue, and Madeleine Watts, contributing a story of desire and withholding. As ever, HEAT Series 3 Number 3 features writing that is moving and impactful, both independently and as an ensemble. First published in 1996, HEAT is a literary journal dedicated to publishing Australian and overseas writers of the highest quality. It returns after a decade-long hiatus with a renewed commitment: to challenge convention and spark international exchange. At the core of HEAT is a desire to bring together writing that is powerful, eccentric and skilful. Rather than being guided by a subject or themes, the journal is drawn to depth of thought, singularity of voice, curiosity and, above all, writing that speaks to the urgency and dynamism inherent in the word ‘heat’ itself. HEAT’s third series is edited by Alexandra Christie and designed by award-winning designer Jenny Grigg. Christie is supported by a distinguished editorial advisory board, alongside Giramondo’s founders, Ivor Indyk and Evelyn Juers, and associate publisher, Nick Tapper. HEAT’s relaunch in print will be supported by the digitisation of the journal’s archive, allowing a new generation of readers to access contributions to past issues. Fifteen issues were published in the first series of HEAT from 1996–2000. The second series followed with twenty-four issues published between 2001 and 2011. Among the contributors to the first two series were Murray Bail, John Berger, Roberto Bolaño, Brian Castro, Inga Clendinnen, Gao Xingjian, Helen Garner, Lisa Gorton, Jorie Graham, Gail Jones, Kapka Kassabova, Etgar Keret, Deborah Levy, David Malouf, Herta Müller, Gerald Murnane, Les Murray, Dorothy Porter, Gig Ryan, Charles Simic and Alexis Wright.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Some things have nothing in common until you put them together, says artist and collector Patrick Pound about his series of found photographs in our latest issue.

The late Hong Kong writer Xi Xi, in a work of autobiographical fiction, processes a cancer diagnosis. Essayist Cameron Hurst finds herself attending a meeting of the Victorian Spiritualists’ Union after reading Henry Handel Richardson. And poets Judith Beveridge and Paul Muldoon transform unassuming animals, people and places into singular moments. Recent praise for HEAT: ‘So slender and elegant, nothing wasted, nothing grandiose — and beautiful work.’ — Helen Garner ‘Elegantly designed and thoughtfully curated, and including work from canonical Australian writers to emerging voices to authors in translation, [HEAT] reminds us how crucial such organs are to the vigour and health of our literary ecosystem.’ — The Saturday Paper ‘A very beautiful and stylish object…long may this new series of HEAT continue!’ — Sarah Holland-Batt ‘I welcome the return of HEAT.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ‘The self is not fixed, but reflects and refracts, appearing in innumerable variations,’ writes Isabella Trimboli, in her essay on diaries and the writers who keep them that opens the new HEAT. Four short stories follow, each, in their own way, concerned with the construction of the self. In Ellena Savage’s piercing satire ‘Bare Life’, a woman muses on the duelling forces of body and mind at the nexus of capitalism, sex and philosophy. Kat Capel’s ‘Sightseeing’ follows a man with unsettling obsessions as he travels from Melbourne to Guangzhou, searching for human connection. Danish author Harald Voetmann (trans. Johanne Sorgenfri Ottosen) peers into childhood fixations in ‘Common Room Rocking Horse’. And the narrator in Lin Bai’s ‘The Light in the Mirror’ (trans. Nicky Harman) recalls queer dreams and desires of a girlhood spent in rural China. Recent praise for HEAT: ‘The revival of HEAT journal has been one of the high points of the year. In the 1990s and 2000s, HEAT was the most exciting, forward-looking literary magazine in the country. After more than a decade on ice, this new series — under the editorship of Alexandra Christie — has raised the bar once again. Elegantly designed and thoughtfully curated, and including work from canonical Australian writers to emerging voices to authors in translation, the journal reminds us how crucial such organs are to the vigour and health of our literary ecosystem.’ — Geordie Williamson, The Saturday Paper’s ‘Best of 2022’ ‘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.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: HEAT, Giramondo’s celebrated literary journal, relaunches in a third series. ‘An edgy and enormously influential literary magazine…’ – The Australian ‘A really lively magazine like HEAT can create the occasion for new writing as well as being an outlet for it, a wish on the part of writers to write up to its standard. It makes things happen. It creates its own scene.’ — David Malouf First published in 1996, HEAT is a literary journal dedicated to publishing Australian and overseas writers of the highest quality.

Download or read book HEAT Series 3 Number 11 written by Alexandra Christie and published by Giramondo Publishing. This book was released on 2023-10-15 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: More than other genres, biography defies methodology. So how do we read it? asks Evelyn Juers in a bravura essay that opens HEAT Series 3 Number 11. Her resolution – to interpret, digress, to walk on some biographical byways – leads first to Virginia Woolf, and on to Albert Einstein and his significant connection to a scientific expedition at Wallal in Western Australia in 1922. In a striking work of fiction, Sara Mesa (translated from the Spanish by Katie Whittemore), takes us into the mind of a young translator, alone in an oppressive small town, as she attempts to make sense of her surroundings. And poets Mona Kareem (translated from the Arabic by Sara Elkamel) and Suneeta Peres da Costa complete the issue with minimalist sequences that traverse beauty, pain, displacement, totems and food. Recent praise for HEAT: ‘The revival of HEAT journal has been one of the high points of the year. In the 1990s and 2000s, HEAT was the most exciting, forward-looking literary magazine in the country.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ‘The appeal of the random, the accidental, the chance, the unpredictable, except in the case of breakfast, is surely essential and needed for a life to be alive. Patterns can be found later.’ So writes Stephanie Radok in the new issue of HEAT, in an essay about gardening, art making and the poet Rainer Maria Rilke. Chance encounters also occur in our pages: between Nöelle Janaczewska’s dramatic appreciation of cheese and art; Jenny Erpenbeck on things that disappear; two deceptively simple stories about friendship by Oliver Driscoll; Mary Jean Chan’s lucid verses of self-expression; an uncanny story by Katharina Volckmer; and Kate Middleton’s biting poems about watching television. Across poetry and prose, the seven contributors to HEAT Series 3 Number 5 share unique, often dreamlike, perspectives on appetites, art and nature.

Dark, twisted, probably evil shadows have drenched the doorsteps of her good people’s homes. And Nicholas Bell—fanboy, hero, ADHD-haver—is being super dramatic again. But honestly, Nick’s life is pretty much perfect. Yeah, it’s hot out, but he finally gets to team up and train with his steamy superhero boyfriend to bring justice, protection, and disaster energy to the people of Nova City. It’s everything he’s ever dreamed of! With graduation on the horizon and his future unknowable, Nick focuses on enjoying the present. Seth, Jazz, and Gibby are busy setting up headquarters for Lighthouse, their hero team. Nick’s dad has partnered with former chief of police Rodney Caplan to start a new private investigation agency. And Nick’s mother, the superhero known as TK, is right there at Nick’s side. Where she’s always been. Hasn’t she? But something’s off. It’s not just Simon Burke running for mayor and campaigning to “cure” Extraordinaries. And it’s not even the rumors that Nick’s ex-boyfriend and villain-in-the-making Owen Burke has escaped. Something else isn’t right, and Nick will need all his friends and loved ones together to uncover the truth before Nova City falls prey to the Burke family.

Book excerpt: A timely and heartfelt follow-up to #1 New York Times bestseller Heat, about a young baseball prodigy and his immigrant family living in today's America. Twelve-year-old star Little League pitcher Nick Garcia has a dream. Several in fact. He dreams he'll win this season's MVP and the chance to throw out the first pitch at Yankee Stadium. He dreams he'll meet his hero, Yankee's pitcher Michael Arroyo. He dreams they'll find a cure for Lupus so he sister won't have to suffer. But mostly, he dreams one day his family can stop living in fear of the government. For one kid, it's almost too much to bear. Luckily, Nick has his two best friends Ben and Diego to keep him balanced. But when Nick notices a mysterious man lurking on his street corner, he senses a threat. Suddenly, his worst fears are realized, and just when it seems there's no one they can trust, an unexpected hero emerges and changes everything. Praise for Strike Zone: *"Lupica skillfully addresses the timely and complicated topic of living as the child of undocumented immigrants and the uncertainty facing many American families....This exceptional baseball novel delivers both lively sports action and critical subject matter." --Kirkus Reviews (starred review) --"Lupica's action sequences are thrilling and fast-paced....[a] solid purchase where Mike Lupica and the Yankees are popular." --School Library Journal --"As he did in Heat, Lupica skillfully juggles the baseball drama with the larger social issues that swirl around it, vividly putting a human face on the immigration crisis." --Booklist --"Strike Zone brings the game of baseball to life, but moreover, it addresses immigration, a current issue in U.S. culture and politics. Teens will choose to read Strike Zone as a "sports book" but will root for Nick both on and off the field. The Garcia family's desire to become legal U.S. citizens is well woven into this fast-paced story." --VOYA
