To Hell with Journals

To Hell with Journals aims to revive the role of the journal in England’s literary scene. Published with a lifespan of only twenty-six issues (A to Z), this thoughtfully produced journal aspires to be a document of our times and a testament to the chaos of the creative process. To Hell’s independent nature and very limited print runs will allow its contributors freedom from the constraints of fashionable trends and commercial concerns.

Slam - Katinka Herbert

“Masks at the ready! As the UK prepares to be grappled, thrown, dazed and delighted by its first ever professional Lucha Libre – the dazzling bouts of Mexican wrestling that have hooked fans across the globe – a new book, Slam, (To Hell With Publishing ) brilliantly captures the extraordinary lives of the sports’ superstars.”

Renowned portrait photographer, Katinka Herbert has spent the last seven years documenting the luchadores, the heroes who fuse sport and showmanship into opium for the Mexican masses. The bouts – literally ‘free wrestling’ – combine the lurid escapism of Bollywood with the athleticism of premiership footballers and the traditional folklore of good against evil. Slam’s mesmerising reportage and portraits delves into the private and public lives of luchadores such as Fray Tormenta, the priest who turned to wrestling after a vision convinced him it would finance his orphanage. He now conducts weddings in his mask and was the influence for Jack Black’s Nacho Libre.
