Arboreal Literary Magazine | Issue No. 03: Illusion

We’re excited to announce the theme for Issue No. 03 is ILLUSION.

How you to interpret this theme is entirely up to you. We simply invite you to venture into the realms of imagination and unravel the illusions that shroud (or illuminate?) reality.

Some Potential Thematic Angles for Inspiration

  • Delve into the illusory nature of human desires, the masks we wear, or the narratives we construct to make sense of the world.
  • Analyze the illusions perpetuated by society, politics, culture, and economics.
  • Explore the ephemeral nature of reality, peering into the shadows where illusion and truth make strange bedfellows.
