Peggy Nelson’s series CROSS-POST will continue to introduce HILOBROW readers to the output of some of her favorite bloggers.
The ANATOMY OF NORBITON series will continue to cross-post entries from Toby Ferris’s eponymous website, which muses on suburban life and universal failure as seen through the lens of the art of the Renaissance. (This series also brought to us by Peggy Nelson.)
In June, we’ll cross-post “Sincerity,” a short essay — about the 1999 redesign of the zine/journal Hermenaut — that HILOBROW’s Josh Glenn first published in the December 2020 issue of Post Road, a literary magazine published by the Department of English at Boston College.
