The Adventures of Urban Girl and Nature Girl

Abstract: This was conceived and written during the week of August 17-22 at Ox-Bow, Saugatuck, Michigan. When I first arrived in Chicago, I couldn’t wait to break in my new hiking shoes or canoe in the lagoon. My inner Nature Girl was bursting to get out. Then the mosquitoes attacked, I got sunburned and toppled out of the canoe. Urban Girl had resurfaced and I wasn’t happy. The fight was on.

After Hours: A Journal of Chicago Writing and Art

Monday, December 29th, 2008

Year: Summer
Edition/Volume: Volume 7
Publisher: Albert DeGenova
Contributors: Albert DeGenova, P. Hertel, Greg Kuepfer, Quraysh Ali Lansana, Cherie Caswell Dost, Lowell B. Komie Joseph M. Giordano, Mary Blinn, Charles Rossiter, Norbert Blei, Jared Smith, Viola Lee, Daniel Godston, Kristy Bowen, Tom Cosgrove, Michelle Seeley, Suzanne Azar Porterfield, Robert Klein Engler, Larry Janowski, Nina Corwin, Donna Pucciani, Barbara Cranford, Elizabeth Marino, M.T. Cozzola
Subjects: Poetry, Art
Keywords: Photography

Abstract: Special feature: Norbert Blei interviews Lowell B. Komie. From the publisher’s introduction:

In our logo we have called ourselves "a journal of Chicago writing and art." The Chicago school of literature is very much like the people, the politicians, the style, the neighborhoods, of the city that inspires an artistic voice that is direct, unpretentious, aware of the realities and inequalities of materialism yet sentimental in a streetwise-front-stoop-backyard sort of way. So often Chicago is thought of as unrefined or unsophisticated… a city of big-shouldered thugs, scandal, dirty alleys, and factory workers. But what Chicago lacks in polish, it makes up for in honesty. Chicago writers pull no punches. Chicago writers find a beauty in big-shouldered thugs, scandal, dirty alleys, and factory workers.
