Winter 2013: Prose


Prose Section Artworkfor - Winter 2013 Issue

Introduction


Since memoir is one of the most popular genres on the market today, it’s no surprise that the three prose selections in this edition fall into that category. From a family at odds over a member’s sexual orientation, to a trip to Norway filled with cultural conflict, to a high schooler’s tangle with friends and vandalism, each author offers us what good memoir requires: the emotional truth behind memory. Each delivers her truth in abundance from the opening lines to the last period.
