Add to basketPaperback. Issue 3 of Encyclopedia Prismatica explores suffering in its intimate and universal forms, using essays, fiction, poetry, and art to interrogate how suffering shapes individuals and communities. The pieces featured--often visceral, challenging, and unapologetic--resist consolation or metaphor, and instead present suffering as the actual texture of lives being lived. From cultural inheritance and bodily ritual to social isolation and generational trauma, these pieces ask us to confront suffering as it is, without redemption, and often without conclusion. That, however, is our imperative: to resist tidy narratives, explore suffering in all its complexity and horror, and ask ourselves what we can do about suffering when the burden is shifted from the sufferer to the witness. Note: this issue contains themes which may be upsetting to some readers. Issue 3 features the following contributors: Diamond AdeyinkaDaniel Andrade AmaralNicholas AltiABAres BartellEvangeline BeechingDioJohnathan DuffKurt GrunskyJ.I.
