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

Issue— #3

Issue No. 3

The lucidly impossibly, the vividly half-remembered and all manner of the not-quite-real and yet far-from-unreal haunt the stories, essays and poems that fill the pages of Black Clock 3.  This is writing that aims not be sensational, but to do something altogether new with sensation itself.  This is visionary literature.
