RR is aiming to create a space for writers whether stablished or emerging with a connection to Lebanon. In the past seven years since it was born, RR has published \u201cdiverse work from local artists and writers, bordering countries, the diaspora, and beyond\u201d. This journal is an interdisciplinary work, which is edited and designed by a staff of faculty, students, and alum from both the Faculty of Arts and Sciences and Department of Architecture and Design.<\/p>\n<p>As the journal evolved, it extended its submissions to writers, artist, poets, etc. from Middle East and North Africa, with the hope to connect beyond the geographical borders. Rusted Radishes published work from Pakistan, Egypt, Tunisia, local translations of Norwegian, French, and Syrian writers. However, Beirut\u2019s culture, history and influence remained always the principal factor at the center of this diverse unity.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cYou will find elements of the natural world on the pages of this issue: cats, horses, stone, redwoods, birds, woodpeckers, ladybugs, the sea, whales, plants, and planets. They are interwoven between themes of belonging, illness, memory, gender, exile, lust, relationships. They criss-cross into each other fluidly, seamlessly, past the expected. Art, like nature, does what it wants.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.library.mcgill.ca\/islamicstudieslibrary\/files\/2019\/05\/11.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-3689 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.library.mcgill.ca\/islamicstudieslibrary\/files\/2019\/05\/11-300x195.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"195\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.library.mcgill.ca\/islamicstudieslibrary\/files\/2019\/05\/11-300x195.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blogs.library.mcgill.ca\/islamicstudieslibrary\/files\/2019\/05\/11-768x500.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blogs.library.mcgill.ca\/islamicstudieslibrary\/files\/2019\/05\/11-1024x666.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blogs.library.mcgill.ca\/islamicstudieslibrary\/files\/2019\/05\/11-461x300.jpg 461w, https:\/\/blogs.library.mcgill.ca\/islamicstudieslibrary\/files\/2019\/05\/11.jpg 1293w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.library.mcgill.ca\/islamicstudieslibrary\/files\/2019\/05\/12.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-3703\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.library.mcgill.ca\/islamicstudieslibrary\/files\/2019\/05\/12-300x142.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"142\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.library.mcgill.ca\/islamicstudieslibrary\/files\/2019\/05\/12-300x142.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blogs.library.mcgill.ca\/islamicstudieslibrary\/files\/2019\/05\/12-768x363.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blogs.library.mcgill.ca\/islamicstudieslibrary\/files\/2019\/05\/12-1024x484.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blogs.library.mcgill.ca\/islamicstudieslibrary\/files\/2019\/05\/12-500x236.jpg 500w, https:\/\/blogs.library.mcgill.ca\/islamicstudieslibrary\/files\/2019\/05\/12.jpg 1340w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a>This journal presents various types of literary and art works including poetry, drama, prose, translations, artwork, comics and interviews.
