Small World City, or SWC, is an online speculative fiction magazine based in Bangladesh.[1] It also features speculative poetry, non-fiction, art, and hybrid text in every issue, published four times a year. The magazine spotlights stories and poems centered around "the absurd, the otherworldly, and the mystical."[2]

Small World City is Bangladesh's first literary magazine with a focus on the speculative genre,[3][4] and among the few English-language literary magazines of the country.[5][6]
