Singular, idiosyncratic and a little mysterious, Black Clock is one of America's leading literary journals.

Issue— #14

Issue No. 14

Following last fall’s acclaimed “mix tape” edition of Black Clock, which summarized the magazine’s first seven years, issue #14 introduces a Black Clock that’s new in look and design even as it continues to press beyond the creative barriers the national literary journal already has broken. Both in its contributors and subject matter, this new Black Clock finds women on the verge: of revelation, euphoria, madness and history.
