The Sun Magazine

For more than forty years The Sun magazine has used essays, interviews, short stories, poems, quotations, and photography to evoke the splendor and heartache of being human.

In each issue of The Sun you'll find some of the most radically intimate and socially conscious writing being published today. In an age of media conglomerates, it is refreshing to hold in your hands a magazine that is ad-free, independent and reader-supported. Each issue celebrates life, embracing it in its complexity and beauty.

Group members (limited to 8 members plus the discussion leader) read the current monthly issue of The Sun. and discuss an article, theme or share responses to poetry, short stories, and essays relating to how those viewpoints were shaped by life experiences. Copies available at the Urbana Free Library and Champaign Library. A FREE Trial issue is available at: thesunmagazine.org. The goal is to facilitate discussion and connection regarding the joys, sorrows and complexities of living.
