ISSUE 01: Acknowledge
the Cockroach



Launch yourself into a world where all veils are ripped away from the inhibited, sanitary, and illusory world we live in with a copy of The Vermin’s inaugural issue: Acknowledge the Cockroach.

Pieces in Issue 01 include expository and politically charged essays, radical and thought-provoking short stories, vulgar and bodily prose and poetry, and striking visuals including photography, sculpture, and painting.
