All 工作 Submissionsted to our poetry, fiction, or nonfiction categories will be considered 以便纳入 文学的影 feature section of our upcoming print issue. If you’re not yet familiar with our 文学的影 feature, which we debuted in Issue 3, here’s a brief description of what we’re keeping a lookout for:

In the great tradition of Jennie Livingston’s documentary, 巴黎在燃烧, we are looking for impeccably-crafted shade. But not just ordinary shade: we’re especially interested in poems, short stories, or essays that throw shade at the institutions that have whitewashed our literature 和 history, be they laws or events or texts authored by dead old cisgender white supremacist misogynistic homophobes. 我们相信 that shade—subversive wit, withering critique—can empower. 我们想要读最阴凉的地方.

樱桃树 被列在 Duotrope 和 NewPages.

我们在寻找什么

樱桃树的 aesthetic champions image-rich, sonically adventurous poetry, fiction, 和 creative nonfiction which showcase whimsy 和 wit alongside risk 和 urgency. 2016年，我们推出了 "文学的影," a section featuring 工作 that responds to 和 challenges oppressive 社会结构. Our name recalls the apocryphal story of George Washington’s ax, 和 we encourage writers to craft new 和 inventive ways to critique, to re-imagine, 和 to chop away at literary traditions. We endeavor to serve as both a site of coalescence 和 protest 和 a vibrant archive of human thought 和 feeling.
