Here begins an examination of the nature of beasts.
Of lions and panthers and tigers,
wolves and foxes,
dogs and apes.
Of poets and fictioneers
and graphic design mavens,
lurkers and disreputable types,
hyenas and scalawags,
and all of the mean, lean, mangy, hidebound skinny, worthless cattle in every particular drove.
Thus begins the newest issue of Another Chicago Magzine.
Featuring the works of Erika Mikkalo, a translation of Manuel Silva Acevedo's Lobo y Ovejas, three short plays by Fred Sasaki, the 2009 Chicago Literary Award Winners and much, much more!
Illustrated by Rob Funderburk with additional works by Aaron Shimer and Jenny Inzerillo
ACM #48 is an issue dedicated to the theme of "American Values." In this issue we feature original art by Andy Carter, as well as some fine work by writers in the Chicago area and beyond. Our Poetry section features an exciting collection of poets such as Brandi Homan, Jason Koo, Noah Eli Gordon, Chad Parmenter, Kristy Odelius, and Thomas Heise. Our Fiction section contains prose by Joe Meno, Thomas Beller, Sean Padraic McCarthy, Kirk Nesset, and Alan Cheuse. Our Creative Nonfiction section is comprised of pieces by Mira Bartok, Kathleen Rooney, and Carole Rosenthal. Garry Cooper's "Whirled News Tonight" lambasts political news by eviscerating the form in which it appears and we have both fiction and poetry by the talented Lina ramona Vitkauskas. Our Reviews section examines the work of Lisa Sewell, Larry Janokowski, Michael Morano, Michael McColly, Betsy Andrews, Tony Trigilio, and an anthology of Chicago poetry edited by William Allegrezza and Ray Bianchi. You can buy it here.
Another Chicago Magazine strives to publish work by writers from varied backgrounds and with varied experiences, and we welcome work that looks beyond the artistic and academic to include and address the larger world. Our view of small press publishing requires that we print not only the work of established writers, but also that of writers whose merits have not yet been discovered by mainstream publications and their audiences.
