Magazine Stand :: Bellevue Literary Review – 47
Bellevue Literary Review – Issue 47 is themed Body Politic. Fiction Editor Suzanne McConnell writes in the foreword, “For this issue of BLR, we asked for writing addressing the interface of any body politic—societal, ideological, or national—with the personal. [. . . ] What about our collective body politic, then? We are fractious, split. But are we more than that? Our history tells us that we have been there before and something in our essence is bent on surviving.”
