Glimmer Train Stories, #25

First appearance in print of these works. SIGNED by Alvarez at her interview. Includes stories by Catherine Seto, Patricia Page, Paul Rawlins, Steven Polansky, Monica Wood, and Brian Champeau. Interviews with Julia Alvarez and Amy Hempel, and an article in the 'silenced voices' series on the Malaysian writer and activist Irene Fernandez by Siobhan Dowd. Each story is preceded by a picture of the author as a child, brief autobiographical comments, and a printed signature. Several authors in each issue also contribute to the comments and photographs found in the "Last Pages" at the end of each issue. A rather idiosyncratic journal, edited by two sisters, but one which consistently publishes excellent fiction. 168 pp. We specialize in literary journals, and have many others - including many not yet catalogued and listed on line.
