The world is a cold place far beyond winter. The Opiate, Vol. 36 might not be able to console you too much on that front, but it might "warm your bones" in other ways if it stokes the fires of your latently brewing internal rage. That said, why not get to burning up with fiction from Danila Botha, Alex Encomienda, Laurence Klavan, Charles Holdefer, Mike Lee and Max Talley, as well as poetry from John Delaney, Steve Denehan, John Grey, Megan Cartwright, Bridget Kriner, Peter Crowley, Mary Paulson, Antonia Alexandra Klimenko, Ron Kolm, Frankie Laufer, David Barnes, Charles March and Susan Richardson.
