The Cascadia Subduction Zone http://www.thecsz.com/

“The CSZ aims to treat work by women as vital and central rather than marginal. What we see, what we talk about, and how we talk about it matters. Seeing, recognizing, and understanding is what makes the world we live in. And the world we live in is, itself, a sort of subduction zone writ large.”

Framed in terms of being a literary magazine with essays and reviews. Full issues are availble online http://www.thecsz.com/past-issues/csz-v5-n3-2015.pdf
