A Literary Welcome
Welcome to the online companion to Pembroke Magazine, where you'll find history, submission guidelines, archives, news, and more. Peruse the pages and get to know this unique publication, providing the best literary offerings from North Carolina and beyond since 1969.
Issue 56 presents fiction, creative nonfiction, poetry, and book reviews. Two retired women try their hands at solving a disappearance; an essayist muses upon her fear of bugs and submarine-sinking krakens; a nature walk is interrupted by the beautiful sight of owl pellets; a nun is torn between her devotion and a man who smells of brick dust; and much more.
