Rivet 18

When they’re arrested, they each say, in testimony, that they “just had to read” what had been written, “way up there—whatever the risk.” 
—Jack Bastock


Rivet 18 is one of our most authentic, affecting, and experimental. You’ll find stories of dark and light, written by authors who are unafraid to look underneath and behind realities constructed to keep the status quo, who shine a light on deeper truths.
