Book 1
The popular, award-winning, online magazine launches its inaugural eBook edition–a groundbreaking, handsomely art directed, colour magazine that creatively mixes art, photography and literature with pop culture, politics and design. 

Featuring George Saunders, Jhumpa Lahiri, Sheila Heti, filmmaker Xavier Dolan, Joseph and Amanda Boyden, among many others, Hazlitt #1 combines the eclecticism and literary taste of The Believer and Granta with the sophisticated art and design sensibilities of magazines such as Monocle and Apartamento. Strikingly art directed by acclaimed clothing designer Jeremy Laing, Hazlitt #1 includes new works alongside some of the greatest hits from the web magazine, illustrated with originally commissioned art and photography throughout.
