Inhaltsangabe

Bahamut 1 is a biannual print journal featuring works of fiction, nonfiction, and drama that explore the fringes of identity, nationality, culture, and voice through writing by authors from around the world.

Derived from "behemoth," the title, Bahamut, is a mythological Arabian creature, a giant fish acting as one of the layers that supports Earth. Borges writes of it that "[all] the seas of the world, placed in one of the fish's nostrils, would be like a mustard seed laid in the desert."
