"Medulla" is the Latin word for "marrow" --- the middle part of a structure. Bone marrow. Plant marrow. The spinal cord. It's also the name of a record album released in 2004 by Icelandic singer Björk, an album stripped of all instruments other than the human voice.
The Medulla Review is
a
literary journal that caters to experimental and surreal writing, a
place in the hindbrain where breathing, swallowing, and circulation
are done through words, a venue for those who believe in creating
reality. We want to hear your voices. What jars you? What makes you dance
on the staircase of your mind? It's about the core of things, getting
down to the essence: that soft center of being and experience where you
are free.
