The Periodical Vol. II Issue No. 1 [Q2 2025]—International Zone
Due to a welcome increase in subscribers, First To Knock can sadly no longer sustain the cost of (what were once entirely free) international orders.
Order here if you a) live outside the U.S., and b) would like to receive Vol. II Issue No. 1. If you live within the U.S. and do not already subscribe, you can do so here. This issue will ship in June.
Please note: Periodicals will ship to the shipping address entered during checkout not to any previous address used for a subscription submission. This no doubt cumbersome process will be streamlined for issues to come.
In this issue:
Pseudo-Plutarch advises on the benefits of not speaking one's mind.
Periodical co-editor Nico Ponce de Leon Dios discusses the language of dogs.
Emily McHugh details a brief history of Puritan New England grave rubbing, replete with illustrations of her work.
Matt Sweeney recommends a favorite New York book.
Bryan Counter examines Tristram Shandy.
Theophilus L. Human analyzes the science of signals and noise.
Edited by Michael P. Daley & Nico Ponce de Leon Dios.
Design by Mark Iosifescu & Nick Ferreira.
