SRUTHI

a magazine of small joys, read from golden hour to ink

keep this —

scroll, slowly

from the editor

This is a little magazine about the things I love.
It has no deadlines, no advertisements, and no ambition beyondkeeping my small joys somewhere better than a camera roll.Inside: five shades of lacquer, three cities, a nightstand that keeps growing,and every film that made me cry — the good kind.Read it slowly. The paper darkens as the evening does.

The Colophon

If you have read this far, the sky above these pages has gone dark —which is how most of my favorite days end anyway:polish drying, a chapter left open face-down,photographs of skies I refuse to walk past.This magazine is where I keep all of it.A new evening goes to print whenever life gives me one.Thank you for staying until the stars came out.

— with love, S.
