smoke
a london peculiar
a 52-page magazine of
words and images inspired by the city
... a love-letter to London, to the wet neon flicker of late-night pavements, electric with endless possibility, and the soft dishevelled beauty of the city’s dawn... to the overheard stories and unexplored histories, the facts and the fictions, the accidental poetry and fugitive art of graffiti-slashed suburban stations and rain-splashed shopfronts... the out-of-shot lives half-glimpsed from a train window, or from a phone number scrawled on the back of a Travelcard, dropped on the night-bus stairs...
THESE PAGES WERE UPDATED IN OCTOBER 2009
Smoke costs £2.90 and appears roughly every 4 months.
The current issue is Smoke 14.
