Damit bietet es Leser*innen einen Einblick in die Literatur der Zukunft und jungen Schreibenden eine Plattform für erste Schritte im Literaturbetrieb. Das Magazin erscheint drei Mal jährlich, unregelmässig werden sorgfältig gestaltete Sonderprojekte realisiert. Rund 200 Autor*innen haben im Narr publiziert und es zu einem der wichtigsten Schweizer Literaturmagazinen gemacht.

Politisch Schreiben meint, Fragen nach Zusammenhängen und Abhängigkeiten stellen. Wovon wir ausgehen: Schriftsteller_innen sind nicht neutral. Der Literaturbetrieb ist kein neutrales System. Es bedarf einer Analyse. Wir schonen uns nicht.
