Rachel Nix writes from the steep inclines of inheritance and memory, where past is a lived terrain. I Don’t Go Down That Road Anymore is a poetry collection tracing intimate geographies of family, place, and womanhood. Here, mothers and daughters braise like moon and sun, names are tried on and shed, inherited traits prescribe bodily identity as well as metaphysical, and these bodies also learn to be reclaimed. This collection challenges the meaning of leaving as a transformation rather than an escape, and even forgiveness treads suspiciously with its weight being measured, not freely given.

Nix presents the reader with a negotiation with what remains. Each poem is like turning away; inward, and forward-or all three in one.

Terry Horstman tips off This Is Where the Fantasy Begins with the whirr, click, and the faint swish of a dusty VHS copy of Zack Snyder’s Michael Jordan’s Playground. Full of tangential analysis of Michael Jordan’s mythology, the game of basketball itself, and the film that started it all for Horstman, This Is Where the Fantasy Begins is a blend of memoir and sports writing. Horstman takes readers through the rules of the game and the nostalgia of the Jordan era.

Following Horstman’s publications in Flagrant Magazine, Taco Bell Quarterly, The McNeese Review, and more, This Is Where the Fantasy Begins will have you wanting to know the man behind the meme, the screen, the team. And, most of all, will have you feeling like you are flying along with him.

In My X’s, Alina Stefanescu interviews herself to ask burning questions concerning her upbringing and memory to investigate how her family’s time in Romania during the height of communism affected her relationships with family, culture, and art. Her use of media objects, ranging from music to photos and film stills, immerses readers into the world that developed the character we know as Alina Stefanescu.
