The Erotic Review was relaunched as a biannual literary and art journal for a contemporary audience in spring 2024. Founded by editor Lucy Roeber in collaboration with award-winning designers Studio Frith and deputy editor Saskia Vogel, we are a serious cultural platform that explores desire through essays, stories, poetry and art.

Our contributors are on the Pulitzer, Booker, Costa, Prix Goncourt and National Book Award prize lists. They’re bestsellers, Emmy award winners, cult digital theorists, environmental historians, intimacy coordinators, film directors and more. Every issue is individually designed as a collectible object of desire and has a different guest art curator. We believe in our common humanity rather than focusing on a particular gender, sexuality or practice.

The first issue sold out in five weeks and the magazine is now stocked in over 140 bookshops and galleries in 20 countries. Become a subscriber and receive two issues annually by post. Explore desire with us on Substack and join the conversation at our sell-out events in London and Berlin.

We also offer bespoke event curation and publishing. We work collaboratively and are open to creative partnerships. Contact us at info@ermagazine.com.
