Since the first issue was published in 1984, Wasafiri has always opened minds and crossed literary worlds. The magazine remains key in mapping new literary landscapes and offering the best of contemporary international writing today, consistently featuring Britain's diverse cultural heritage whilst also highlighting the vast range of worldwide diasporic and migrant literature. 'Wasafiri', the Kiswahili word for travellers, captures our ethos: to travel the world via the word to extend and challenge the established boundaries of literary culture. Wasafiri gives particular prominence to those whose literary and historical concerns do not necessarily fit within the confining rubrics of any one particular movement, tradition, or culture. One of the UK's first publications to have provided a sustained outlet for new writing, it has contributed to the emergence of many now established voices and offers a dynamic context for dialogue and critical debate. The quarterly magazine draws widely across modern culture and the arts, publishing a lively and informed mix of fiction, poetry, interviews, essays and reviews by both well-known and rising names. As such, Wasafiri provides a unique forum for those keen to explore the geographies and contours of new and emerging literary worlds. Last year Wasafiri celebrated its 25th anniversary with a series of cutting edge live events including renowned literary names and some of the best up and coming voices, whilst the magazine's New Writing Prize discovered some exciting new creative writers. As we move into our next quarter century, Wasafiri looks forward to renewing its commitment to 'celebrating the best of tomorrow's writers today'.
