New Contrast is a labour of love for its small staff and contributors.  It is a non-profit company that exists on the slimmest of margins. The South African Literary Journal needs you, the subscriber and benefactor, to prosper.

Quality and resilience is the key to New Contrast's longevity.  In a world where many literary magazines go under within than five years, this South African classic has been published for 50 years.  Neither the pressures of political correctness nor financial constraints have distracted it from its mission to bring you a wide spectrum of new writing from South Africa and beyond.

Two of our patrons are the Nobel literary Laureates, Nadine Gordimer and JM Coetzee who have both featured in the pages of New Contrast; as have Alan Paton, Ingrid Jonker, Andre Brink, Christopher Hope, Zakes Mda, Mary Renault, Njabulo Ndebele, Antjie Krog, Breyten Breytenbach and many others.


We are intent on publishing new writers, new writing from the new South Africa.

Your support makes possible the extension of value we now offer you at no further cost. In coming months you will have full access to the text and art of all previous issues of New Contrast and Contrast magazines published since 1960 by the South African Literary Journal Limited.

We've are copying the images and text onto the Web. It will contain the full electronic archive of an important area of Southern African literary history.
