In this issue, Robert Fanning attempts to translate distance into love in three poems beginning with “Snow and Roses.” Patricia Foster considers what it means to start a conversation with strangers in “The Boys.” And, in Casey Pycior’s story “O’er the Ramparts,” we’re introduced to Kent, a man who struggles with everything: his job, his marriage, his children, a new neighbor, a video game, and the launching of fireworks.
This issue features turn-of-the-century hypnotism posters from The Donaldson Lithographing Co. based in Newport, Kentucky.
