Kaffeeklatsch is a journal of new poetry and criticism. You can read bits and pieces from the magazine here, or – to find out what we’re about – you can try and make some sense of our manifesto. Alternatively, just tool around using the menu on the left, and make yourself at home.

 

Kaffeeklatsch is edited by Matthew Halliday, Joey Connolly, and (kind of) Stephen Nashef. A 'Kaffeeklatsch' is an occasion for idle chatter over coffee; the OED has 'kaffeeklatsch' as "Gossip over coffee cups". How nice!

We don't know why you might do this (although "Gloom and solemnity", Pound gives us, "are entirely out of place in even those most rigorous study of an art originally intended to make glad the heart of man", my italics), but stranger things, we've heard, have happened at sea.
