a place where works of great artists, thinkers, and critics comes together in the form of a literary magazine

In Parentheses is a literary magazine and community founded in late 2011, dedicated to exploring the evolution of human thought through artistic expression, journalism, and critical analysis. The magazine serves as a platform for artists, thinkers, and critics to present works that challenge conventional ideologies and encourage intellectual expansion. Its mission is to appreciate, nurture, and precipitate the evolution of human thought by presenting a dynamo of artistic expression, journalism, informal analysis of our daily world, entertainment of ideas considered lofty, and criticism of today’s popular culture. The featured content does not follow any specific ideology except for that of intellectual expansion of the masses. (inparentheses.art)
