A Note from the Editors
We started The Memorious because we wanted a literary magazine that felt like the ones we fell in love with as young readers: carefully made, seriously beautiful, and full of writing that changed the way we saw the world. This first issue is our attempt to build that magazine. We hope you will read it and tell us what you think.
— Jack, Sean, and Nathaniel
