Obviously you need some French illustrations of helmet divers today. Why not throw in a few 19th Century Swiss pears while you’re at it. The dead seas of Titan. Monowi…

Once upon a time the world was filled with giant penguins. Continuing a theme from yesterday: what if the Mexican-American War hadn’t happened? Super volcanoes of Io. NASA’s impossible space…

Medieval pop culture jokes. The art cars of Osamu Kokofu. Look, maybe you want to look at some 1970s fairy tale porn posters, that’s up to you. Maybe long-term couples…

Good news: now you can send you dead pets into outer space like the good lord intended. Dinosaurs had 50 million years of nonstop shrinking. Behold the oldest galaxy in…

COMMUNITY SUPPORT KEEPS THE MAGAZINE GOING!

Founded in 2009, The Rumpus is one of the longest-running online literary magazines around. We’ve been independent from the start, which means we’re not connected with any academic institution, wealthy benefactor, or part of a larger publishing company. The vast majority of the magazine’s funding comes from reader support.

In other words, we can’t survive without YOU!

Keep in Touch

The Rumpus publishes original fiction, poetry, literary humor writing, comics, essays, book reviews, and interviews with authors and artists of all kinds. Our mostly volunteer-run magazine strives to be a platform for risk-taking voices and writing that might not find a home elsewhere. We lift up new voices alongside those of more established writers our readers may already know and love. We want to bring new perspectives into the conversation that will make us all look deeper.

We believe that literature builds community—and if reading The Rumpus makes you feel more connected, please show your support! Get your Rumpus merch in our online store. Subscribe to receive Letters in the Mail from authors or join us by becoming a monthly or yearly Member.

We support independent bookstores! 10% of sales on any titles purchased through our Bookshop.org page or affiliate links benefits the magazine.
