EDITORIAL Before Grief
At the end of 2020, Julia asked me if I’d like to be part of a new literary magazine. The theme for the first issue was 'anticipated grief'. She tells me the idea through Letty—a friend whose parents’ tenacious efforts to protect her from paedophiles would instil in Letty, both fear and expectation that now in her mid-twenties, has given way to a fear of losing her dog, Fresco, to dognappers, fast trams and mysterious fur loss. Anticipated grief, Julia explains.
