We publish fiction, poetry, essays, interviews, criticism, and visual works— pieces that move across borders, genres, memories, and forms of belonging. — ✧ 𝓐𝓫𝓸𝓾𝓽 𝓥𝓸𝓵. 𝟎𝟐: 𝓢𝔂𝓶𝓫𝓲𝓸𝓼𝓲𝓼, 共生 ✧ This issue begins with a question: When symbiosis becomes a condition of survival, how do we speak about it? 共生 is not simply harmony. It may be attachment, friction, dependence, adaptation. It may be the quiet negotiation between intimacy and distance, between the self and the other, between memory and the present tense. — ✧ 𝓝𝓮𝔀 𝓲𝓷 𝓽𝓱𝓲𝓼 𝓲𝓼𝓼𝓾𝓮 ✧ For the first time, Apus brings together both Chinese- and English-language works in one volume. The issue is intentionally designed in an “M” format in response to the theme of symbiosis— two sides, two movements, two language worlds meeting through the body of the book. — ✧ 𝓦𝓱𝓪𝓽 𝓽𝓸 𝓔𝔁𝓹𝓮𝓬𝓽 ✧ 📚 𝙱𝚘𝚘𝚔 𝙻𝚊𝚞𝚗𝚌𝚑 Come see Apus 雨燕 Vol. 02 in person. Flip through its pages, unfold its artworks, and take home a copy. 💬 𝙾𝚙𝚎𝚗 𝙲𝚘𝚗𝚟𝚎𝚛𝚜𝚊𝚝𝚒𝚘𝚗 Editors, artists, and readers will gather to talk about literature, language, design, diaspora, and the making of this issue. 📖 𝚁𝚎𝚊𝚍𝚒𝚗𝚐 & 𝚂𝚑𝚊𝚛𝚒𝚗𝚐 A slow afternoon for reading, listening, browsing, and conversation. You are welcome to speak, to ask, to linger, or simply to be with the book. — 🌿 𝑶𝒏 𝑴𝒂𝒚 𝟑𝟏, 𝒄𝒐𝒎𝒆 𝒖𝒏𝒇𝒐𝒍𝒅 𝑽𝒐𝒍. 𝟎𝟐 𝒘𝒊𝒕𝒉 𝒖𝒔.
