SS African Mercury #1

SS African Mercury (SSAM) is a New York-based print journal that will appear twice a year. They publish reviews of books, essays on miscellaneous topics and occasional interviews.SSAM was launched in a spirit of schism. It addresses a readership that does not yet exist and so seeks to interpellate its readers into a new politico-intellectual fellowship. Its criticism appeals to the intellect alone. Today some will find the prevailing intellectual level in academia and the political scene—from Left to Right—revoltingly low. SSAM raises a banner and hopes those who feel this way will gather round.Issue #1 features drawings by Max Hooper Schneider. SSAM, 2024 Softcover, 117 pages B/W throughout 8 x 12 inches
