Absurd, extreme, fun, and frighteningly real. Splinter's first issue tours the world and the self and is mostly disappointed (horrified?) or confused about what it finds, although – sometimes, at least – it is funny. Read Sara M Saleh on how Gaza drew back the curtain on the self-serving mirror world of international law; Jane Rawson grappling with the inescapability of sonic environmental destruction; Susie Anderson asking why all the literary sad girls are having such uninspiring sex; and Anthony Nocera explaining how to make a foot pussy (while grieving). And lots of other, very interesting (sometimes even slightly optimistic) writing.
