Publisher: The Cafe Irreal

The Cafe Irreal is a quarterly webzine that presents a kind of fantastic
fiction infrequently published in English. This fiction, which we would
describe as irreal, resembles the work of writers such as Franz Kafka, Kobo
Abe, Luisa Valenzuela and Jorge Luis Borges. As a type of fiction it rejects
the tendency to portray people and places realistically and the need for a
full resolution to the story; instead, it shows us a reality constantly
being undermined. Therefore, we're interested in stories by writers who
write about what they  don't know, take us places we couldn't possibly go,
and don't  try to make us care about the characters.

Effective May 1, 2005 The Cafe Irreal will become a quarterly publication,
publishing on May 1, August 1, November 1, and February 1 of each year. The
deadline for submissions for each issue will be one month before the date of
publication.
