the year after your father dies
|
In this issue, Daniel Leach delivers two poems from the South Carolina low country beginning with “the year after your father dies.”
Lauren Green tells the story of a couple’s reconciliation trip after the husband’s affair is discovered in “My Life.”
And noted essayist Chris Arthur reveals the joy and sometimes dark thoughts that are inspired by his page-a-day art calendar in “Picturing the Day.”
The photographs in this issue come from Physical Training for Business Men by American author Harrie Irving Hancock. The 1919 book’s premise is that a certain quality of physical presence, “impressive carriage and appearance,” are essential to “those who would succeed in the business world.”
This series of photographs is from Physical Training for Business Men by American author Harrie Irving Hancock. The 1919 book’s premise is that a certain quality of physical presence, “impressive carriage and appearance”, are essential to “those who would succeed in the business world”. The photos were taken by a “Mr Phelan” (who worked with Hancock on a number of other exercise books); the models are unnamed. (Abridged from The Public Domain Review.)
