Literary: A WordPress Blog Theme with a twist

So what was the turning point?

Literature is not only a beautifully crafted blog theme, it also comes with a post type for showcasing your books and a post type for your portfolio.

So whether you're a blogger, author, author, illustrator, designer or just anyone - literature is for you.

Built for the future

Literature is compatible with the latest WordPress versions, we've actually updated the entire theme to work with the new Gutenberg editor introduced in WP 5.0.

We built a "mobile-first" theme for speed and flexibility, and literature looks great on everything from mobile devices to large desktops.

If you buy, thank you and don't forget to rate the theme
