Dear Lovers of the Writing Arts,

New Contrast has been the leading literary journal in South Africa for over six decades, publishing excellent writing from South Africa and the world, and with your help, our editors, board members and volunteers will ensure it remains so for decades to come. However, despite our storied history, we are facing an urgent financial crisis. The loss of institutional funds, sharp increases in printing and postage charges and low subscription rates mean that our income is not keeping up with our costs. We appeal to you to help us continue publishing New Contrast by subscribing (live link) and/or donating to our Fund for the Future of New Contrast.(live link) 

To purchase an annual subscription of three issues for yourself or someone else, click here. Please also consider making a donation by clicking the ‘Donate’ button. Those who donate R2 000 or more per year (*$115 / 815 Yuan / 175 000 Naira / 420 Dirhams) will receive a free digital subscription to our journal, and be listed as PATRONS, unless they prefer anonymity. 

Join us as a reader and as a supporter of great writing by subscribing and/or donating today. Thank you.
