In the beginning was the excerpt

[image error]I have been working a bit on a longish manuscript yoked uncertainly, in a bumpy ride, to the Pentateuch. Amy Newman, the editor of the journal Ancora Imparo, was kind enough to print an excerpt from this (tentatively titled One Nation Taken Out of Another), together with some reflections on bilingual writing. While you're there, check out some great work by Zayne Turner (whose Alluvial Fugue finds error, mishap, and oil in both relationship and metropolis) and the bucolic status updates of Katie Andraski. The whole issue is interesting. Sparks fly.
