Never mind what people are reading these days. What should I be writing about is the fundamental question.”Prose by Dan Bevacqua, Caoilinn Hughes, Silas Jones, Alec Niedenthal, Adania Shibli, and Abdulah Sidran.Poetry by Sargon Boulus, Egill Skallagrímsson, Rachel Mannheimer, Simone White, and Hua Xi.Art by Ann Craven, Ala Ebtekar, and Josh Smith; cover by Seth Becker.
