Outsiders and Community continues this week with a focus on questions of identity and self perception. In Fake Lezzie, Susan Scheid mingles attraction, literature, and desire in a stylistically playful short story. Lorraine Lupo's trio of prose poems, Maria's New Job, Washing Cars, and Tuna Helper, poignantly reflects on issues of class and primer lessons for adult education. In Rebound for Glory: More Thoughts on Woody, Pete Mulvihill describes the joys of finding a hero and shares ways to check out the songster, activist, and writer, who is finally in vogue. Also in this issue... a tasty meal for one in the "me" celebration, a letter concerning Chocolat, and an interview about letters; tales of a dead sea nymph, live bison, a supermarket dreamer, a goddess of the future, Central European traveler, pictures from Africa, an encounter between Pennsylvania Dutch farmers and Silicon Valley workers, Arkansas neighbors, a Montana environmentalist, a plywood civilization, loneliness in the city, sad smokers, bowling and intimacy, and finding comfort in San Francisco; and quotes of the day and other ephemera. Coming soon: some bowling, some crying, Lethem vs. le Carré, and Einstein at a party in Singapore.As always, we welcome your letters. nada
