Welcome to Issue 12 of Dark Yonder, a neo-noir journal for those who refuse to stick their heads in the sand. In a world governed by greedy lunatics and rising seas, where the rich get insanely richer and the rest of us are left to face the consequences, what is the point of a story? Perhaps, as Franz Kafka suggested, reality is simply too heavy to carry - or, at least, too heavy to carry alone.
In these pages, we don't offer you alternate realities, but we do offer a record of what it feels like to live, breathe, and bleed in the middle of this specific moment. So sit back, grab a drink, and dive deep into ten stories that seek honesty in the most unlikely corners and that explore the desperate lengths people will go to when they have nothing left to lose:
- Who Are You This Time? by Tom Andes
- Ten is the Point by Doug Bucshon
- Bread and Hanabada by Mark Coggins
- The Guitar by Christina Hoag
- Real Mean-Looking by Nick Kolakowski
- Love & Marriage by Veronica Leigh
- Man of the House by Hugh Lessig
- Faster Pussycat, Kill, Kill by Steve Liskow
- The Squoval by K.T. Nguyen
- Round and Round by Grant Tracey
As usual, our collection of eye-opening stories is accompanied by a cocktail recipe - this issue, it's a signature Yonder Bar drink called Two Minutes To Midnight - plus commentary by editors Katy Munger and Eryk Pruitt.
