This issue is dedicated to Saul Bellow and Larry Rivers. Using the language and adventures of the urban frontier they transformed the shape of American ficition and art from the l950s on. Both were on our founding Board and encouraged us to make The Reading Room. They will be forever missed. We thought the best way to honor them was to let them speak in their own voices. |
