Issue: Autumn - 2015
In
the closing issue of The Southern Review’s eightieth
anniversary volume, we bring together longtime contributors and new writers to help
us celebrate the history and future of the journal. Stories take us from an El
Salvadorian mountainside to a publishing house in London to the dangers lurking
in our own backyard, while the issue’s essays span the breadth of courtship,
marriage, and divorce, with humor, candor, and reflection about the
possibilities of love. The poetry of the autumn issues includes new work by
David Kirby, Jane Springer, and David St. John, as well as a suite of poems by
emerging poet Anders Carlson-Wee. The autumn issues features the artwork of
Alison Elizabeth Taylor, a Brooklyn-based artist who uses the age-old process
of marquetry (cutting and collaging pieces of wood) to portray the strange and
beautiful world around her.
