Fifth Corner Journal

The Fifth Corner is a British Columbia–based literary publication dedicated to curated fiction that engages the strange, the liminal, and the psychologically resonant. Each issue brings together emerging and established writers alongside commissioned visual artwork, pairing text with original illustration. Published in both digital and limited print editions, the magazine prioritizes craft, atmosphere, and editorial cohesion. The Fifth Corner seeks work that inhabits the margins—where the surreal meets the domestic, and where narrative tension unsettles the familiar—while maintaining a commitment to professional standards and fair contributor honoraria.
