Theme: Belonging
“In this, our belonging issue, we have a young man who follows ‘the guy,’ a dim girl who becomes part of an abusive ‘family,’ townspeople sharing a sacrifice they hope will make all their lives better, burb boys and pixies trying to connect, and two people plotting to rescue a friend from a dangerous love. There are falling gods and faceless shape-shifters, an auditorium for autopsy and a welcome-home for dead cats, cave painters of dreams and a pyre cast in starstorm, a home for now or forever, safety in the foundering waves.”
