Editor Win McCormack started Tin House in 1999 as an antidote to "those stuffy, staid literary magazines that go down like cough medicine.” His gamble has paid off handsomely Tin House is now ranked alongside such magazines as McSweeney’s and The Paris Review as one of the most important contemporary literary venues. Noted also for its high-style design, Tin House features the best writers on the scene, along with a new generation of talent the editors believe will become significant writers of the future. Equally engaged with pop culture and high art, the Tin House: Graphic Issue expands the magazine’s mission by exploring the ways in which visual art and text interact or collide. Incorporating original art, stories, and interviews, this issue highlights the work of the most provocative graphic novelists, political cartoonists, artists, and writers today.

Beautifully designed and showcasing the best of both well-known writers and rising stars, Tin House has pulled out of the pack to gain a reputation as the most important of contemporary literary magazines. Outsider literature, like outsider art and music, has become increasingly popular in our corporatized, consumerist society. The Spring theme issue of Tin House examines this trend in depth. Subtitled Off the Grid,” this special issue includes powerful work by or about people or institutions that function  or don’t  out of the bounds of normal” society. Highlighting a unique kind of raw creativity unmediated by formal training or standard narrative strategies, the issue includes a Lost & Found” section that contains brief appreciations of texts written outside of conventional publishing, writings done in prison and mental institutions, exile and in secret,” and in fantastic realms beyond.
