Description
In McSweeneys 78: The Make Believers (guest edited by Thi Bui and Vu Tran), nine writers of the Vietnamese diaspora write from the eclectic hodgepodge that is their shared imagination of what it means to be Vietnamese. The work in this issue spans highbrow to lowbrow, proper to naughty, logical to absurd, and painful to funny. This issue will be published on April 30th 2025, on the occasion of the 50th anniversary of the end of the Vietnam War. Its contributors work across diasporic perspectives and multiple languages. In this completely singular, nothing-else-of-its-kind, anthology contributors write (and illustrate!) from a place of collective loss and joy.

Ever changing, each issue of the quarterly is completely redesigned (there have been hardcovers and paperbacks, an issue with two spines, an issue with a magnetic binding, an issue that looked like a bundle of junk mail, and an issue that looked like a sweaty human head), but always brings you the very best in new literary fiction.
