Journal Issue
Art and the Artist gives this issue its argumentative center, with Miller Williams setting the terms. The fiction—The Net Fisherman by Rex S. Burns; The Day Gregory Peck Came to Guadalajara by Mary Alice Philips—moves among private crisis, social pressure, and public consequence, with each story’s title and setting supplying a distinct point of entry. The poetry runs from Seven Haiku and Two Poems, shifting between grouped poems and single lyrics rather than settling into one house style. Essays and reviews carry that movement into The Daily Reality, so the issue reads as a conversation rather than a stack of unrelated contributions The printed contents bring together 2 works of fiction, 20 poetry entries, 3 prose or editorial entries, giving the issue a deliberately mixed pace across genres and forms.
