The Opiate: Winter 2025, Vol.40 - Paperback

Welcome to The Opiate, Vol. 40. A particularly momentous issue because of both its milestone number and seeing the magazine into its "ten-year anniversary era." That said, we aim to keep pushing the envelope as usual in the years to come (or however long printed materials endure). This edition features a mix of "familiar favorite" alumni and erstwhile The Opiate "virgins," including fiction, nonfiction and poetry from Holly Marihugh, Max Talley, Russ Doherty, Lela Cermin, Kari Wergeland, Renshaw, Zeke Greenwald, Alex Osman, John Grey, Djanet, Antonia Alexandra Klimenko, Alessio Zanelli, Stephen Barile, Alise Versella, Frank Freeman, Elizabeth Kirkpatrick-Vrenios, Ken Been, Frankie Laufer, Dale Champlin and Marissa Glover.
