COMING SOON

"The Summer looks out from her brazen tower/Through the flashing bars of July," Francis Thompson wrote in A Corymbus for Autumn. Well, we here at the Carousel may have been to a few flashy bars in our lives, but we'll save those stories for another time (and do remind us because in one tale, there's a guy with rabies, a Kenny Loggins cover band and a late night scuba dive in search of a watch that supposedly used to belong to Clark Gable). We will, however, not skimp on the flash: Next issue will feature a comprehensive interview with The Church's Marty Wilson-Piper as well as an essay by Slanted and Enchanted author Kaya Oakes.

Flash, flash, flash.

Write. Call. Text. Hearing from you makes us happy as kings.

Love and Rockets,
Alex Green, Editor
