Just finished reading the current issue of Black Warrior Review. Once again, it is a fine collection of fiction, non-fiction, poetry, and art work that does not disappoint. In fact, it inspires.
My favorites in this issue were:
“Friends Don’t Let Friends Procreate (or WWJD?)”–a poingnant, honest, and humorous essay by Matthew M. Quick (I will go so far as to say this essay is, at times, laugh out loud funny. I loved it.)
All of the short stories were great but I was particularly taken with those by: Douglas Trevor, Chris Gavaler, and Jason Daniel Schwartz
As for poetry, all wonderful, but I loved the ones by Bob Hicock and Peter Mishler
