Summer might be a presumed time of joy, but, in the wake of certain events aimed at stripping women of their agency, it's feeling like more of a "hot girl bummer" in 2022. The Opiate, Vol. 30 addresses that and more, in addition to offering a stunning collection of fiction and poetry from Jérémy Bernard, Matthew Snyderman, Peter Obourn, David Obuchowski, Timothy Knapp, Christopher Adams, Simone Consorti and Patrick Williamson, Victor Marrero, Dawn Bratton, Antonia Alexandra Klimenko, Lindsey Wentzel, Luke Shiller, Zeke Greenwald and Dale Champlin.
