Brick is an international literary journal published twice a year out of Toronto. With a focus on literary non-fiction—and a willingness to stray into fiction and poetry—the magazine prizes the personal voice and celebrates life, art, and the written word with the most invigorating and challenging essays, interviews, translations, memoirs, belles lettres, and unusual musings we can get our hands-on.

In this issue:

• Omar El Akkad swims from Doha to Orgeon
• Hanif Kureishi rediscovers his subject matter
• Rahul Bhattacharya on the greatest cricket photo ever taken
• Kaiama L. Glover translates Haiti’s revolutionary poet
• Eleanor Wachtel interviews Percival Everett
• Lorna Goodison leaves the dinner party
• Suzanne Gardinier locates poetry’s moral core
• Chris Bailey confronts the wreckage
• Karen Benning encounters the loneliest element
• Phoebe Wang raises the main
• Fiction by Kanako Nishi and Steven Heighton
• Poetry by Robert Bringhurst, Jesse Nathan, and René Depestre
• Plus artwork by Tom Hegen, Manny Trinh, Leanne Shapton, and Lauren Tamaki
