Here’s our “Gothics” issue (Spring 2018) at last, with nine stories that celebrate and/or interrogate this ever-evolving tradition. Whether the tale is set in 14th-century France, 18th-century England, 21st-century Germany, a nameless stretch of desert, or a galaxy far away, certain tropes will be familiar. This collection features a story exclusive to the ebook: an “exquisite corpse” tale created in sequence by Mike Allen, Vajra Chandrasekera, Amal El-Mohtar, Natalia Theodoridou, and JY Yang.
