NE in DC
American readers! If you happen to be near Washington DC anytime soon, you should visit the mighty Politics & Prose Bookstore.
You should go anyway, but an additional reason is that they now stock New Escapologist.
You can see our happy little mag in this photograph. We’re snuggled in the shelving system with Sight & Sound, Apartamento and our friend Jonathan’s Analog Sea Review. The divider tag describes us as “Niche, Cheeky, Defiant,” which is true.
As it happens, this is nothing to do with the new distribution arrangement that will see New Escapologist in thirty or so shops across the UK, EU and US (news of which is coming soon).
In this case, bookseller Shane got in touch independently to request copies for sale. He was not deterred by the now-parodic cost of shipping to the US from Scotland and the order was placed. What a hero.
Honestly, little pleases me more than evidence of émigré copies of New Escapologist. Thanks for the pic, Shane, and for stocking our mag.

In the unlikely event that you’re not in Washington DC, you can still order Issue 15 in our online shop.
And if you happen to be a bookseller yourself, please see this page about how to stock New Escapologist.

Congratulations!
I much prefer paper books and magazines but living in the US (and a long way from DC!) means I have to buy electronic versions of UK publications.
It really sucks. If you let me know privately by email where you are, I’ll try to find a bookshop in your town and see if our distributor can reach them.
