Issue 26

Last in our series of selections from Issue 26: Dark Ocean, Roc Sandford brings us a haunting piece of fiction set on an isolated island, where our narrator keeps a diary of a damaged future that is still filled by the massive presences of weather, land and sea. With an etching of the remote island Tristan da Cunha by Ian Brooks.

Latest post from the just-published Dark Ocean: a re-imaginative charting of Cape Cod by Sarah B. Cahalan and a modern changeling story by M. Rose. With liminal artwork by Robin V. Robinson and Seb Bradshaw.

From our autumn special issue Dark Ocean, an extract from a story about an island made of rubbish in the climate-threatened Maldives. Lawrence Lenhart investigates the global garbage dump that is Thilafushi. With undersea photographs by Nick Brandt.

Submissions are now open for Dark Mountain's 26th book, a special issue that dives deep into the seven seas of the world
