An adult woman haunted by her childhood muses on the foster system, institutions, and the medieval tale of a girl given to a witch. A genderqueer Brooklynite learns of their past life as a murdered sorceress. An uptight participant at a Northern California witch camp finds community in the kitchen. A professor uses magic to help students under attack by right-wing politicians.


In this collection of manifesto, poetry, playscripts, and prose, the archetype of the Witch is honoured and unpacked, poked and prodded, owned and othered. From work centred in antiquity to writing that illustrates how primordial occult energies continue to enliven our world today, WITCH lays bare a wilderness of myth, magic, trickery, and power swarming beneath the surface of contemporary life.


With work from CAConrad, Frankie Miren, Sarah Shin, Edgar Fabian Frias, Amanda Yates Garcia, Ashley Ray, Brooke Palmieri, Yumi Sakugawa, Kai Cheng Thom, Ariel Gore, Myriam Gurba, Fariha Roisin, and many others.
