The Enemy Within

Right-wing governments all over the globe seek to define enemies for their citizens, often singling out the most vulnerable among them. Before his re-election at the close of 2024, Donald Trump in the United States declared that his political critics, many of whom belong to marginalized groups, are his enemies, disturbingly calling them "The Enemy Within." Rainy Weather Days embraces this title for its third volume in the spirit of resistance.

Part 1 of volume 3 comprises pieces accepted during our call for works with a "cozy" theme. Part 2 comprises pieces accepted under our call for works of resistance. Our focus as a literary magazine will change from "cozy" to "defiant" for the foreseeable future as we participate in the resistance to right-wing ideology.
