Liberation Lit publishes progressive and revolutionary fiction, and other libratory art.
Works are published online on a rolling basis, periodically collected in book form, in part.
What is art in face of torture,
aggression, domination?
Art may be liberatory.
The artworks of Liberation Lit -
personal in especially public
as well as private focus -
are gathered toward that end -
to engage, to enlighten, to liberate.
Lib Lit prefers to publish fiction that may be deemed too partisan or didactic, or otherwise overtly factual and political, for publication by most corporate presses. Writers Guidelines.
Liberation Lit publishes special Focus features also; the first will be on Kenya and its current upheaval, and will be included in the first issue. The Focus features, while involving imaginative works, add various forms of nonfiction views to the libratory mix.
“Most of the literature of the world has been propagandistic in one way or another…. In a word, the revolutionary critic does not believe that we can have art without craftsmanship; what he does believe is that, granted the craftsmanship, our aim should be to make art serve man as a thing of action and not man serve art as a thing of escape.” - V. F. Calverton
