Tin House: Weird Science

Improbable, far-fetched, real? Today's science headlines read like futuristic tales. From nanobots and neutrinos to architeuthis, the real is often stranger than the most speculative sci fi. In that vein, the latest edition of Tin House features fiction, poetry, and nonfiction that go beyond the headlines into current, past, and future scientific explanations of "reality." There may even be speculative fiction, if there are humans involved.

Tin House is a beautifully designed periodical that features the best writers of our time alongside a new generation of talent. Content includes unique departments such as "Lost and Found," in which writers review overlooked or underrated books, and "Blithe Spirits" and "Readable Feast," which present tales and literary recipes for drinks and food.

Tin House magazine is published by Win McCormack and edited by Rob Spillman, Lee Montgomery, Holly MacArthur, Cheston Knapp, Michelle Wildgen, Brenda Shaughnessey, Matthew Dickman, Tonaya Thompson, Brian Deleeuw, and Lance Cleland. Look for another great lineup of contributing authors in Spring 2012!
