Welcome to the first issue of Folyosó, an online literary journal by students of the Varga Katalin Gimnázium in Szolnok, Hungary. Plans for the journal started in March 2020, during the coronavirus pandemic; these times call for a literary journal just as any time does—that is, boldly, clearly, and merrily. Two months later, on May 11, 2020, the inaugural issue appeared. See the contents below. We welcome your readership and comments!
