The Los Angeles Review, Spring 2016

When senses voiced in writing merge, separate, and flow back together again, ink and paper suddenly transform. The blan, working alongside poverty in Haiti, the killing of things living yet unjustly categorized as trivial, the change in lives through photographs, and their stillness in passing. Color speaks, light touches, smell remembers, all through the innately human attempt to soften the unfamiliar, to know and experience otherness. Enter Volume 19 of The Los Angeles Review and witness the minutiaes and grandeurs, the discomforts and triumphs of life as the senses tell it.
