A fiercely protective soccer mom's growing obsession with her daughter's selfish teammate spirals into anonymous online harassment. After a lonely teenage girl's death, her final song echoes through grief, neglect, and the hope that someone will finally hear her voice. As a husband's facial features mysteriously shift across his face, his wife confronts the unsettling ways love, identity, and intimacy can transform over time. An ordinary trip to a garden centre slowly unfolds into a quietly unsettling exploration of memory, loss, and the surreal beneath everyday life. A young girl raised by her bird-catching father in a mythic world discovers that the magic and stories surrounding her family hold deeper truths than she realizes.
The line between the ordinary and the extraordinary blur in Marrow Magazine's surreal Issue 16. In this carefully curated collection of fiction, poetry, creative nonfiction, hybrid, and more, both established and emerging writers explore themes of grief, hauntings of memory, lost innocence, parental worry, and more.
Founded in 2021, Marrow is an indie literary magazine committed to publishing fabulist, feminist work that delves into dark, feminine spaces. We're interested in experimental writing that uses compelling language and imagery to remind us what it means to be human, that makes wonderful the plain and strange the ordinary.
