Abstract:
From the back cover: “Step into the Light” is a collection of poetry that casts a cold, hard eye on the coke-snorting, beer-swilling, pill-popping world of contemporary America as it lurches into the twilight of the twentieth century. This book speaks with a literary tongue that tells the grim story of addiction with honesty and gut-wrenching detail. But it also sings with joy and triumph about recovery, sobriety and serenity.”

Tuesday, December 30th, 2008
Year: June 2002
Edition/Volume: Volume 1
Publisher: Tense Forms
Contributors: Joshua Dumas, Mike Piontek, Jessica Neafsey, Sarah Renée Bertsch, Nora McComiskey, Elizabeth Boyne, Kate Tate Raney, Craig Blakeman, Rich Jun, Mark Temelko, Domenico Ferri, Chris Stump
Subjects: Art, Poetry, Fiction
Keywords: Conceptual Art, Photography, Painting
Abstract: 6×5 is a collection of written and visual material that aspires to be a unified art object. All elements are intended to interact with all other elements but their collisions are not premeditated. Each issue has a loose theme that is sometimes determined before the work is collected, sometimes after. Some elements are entirely handcrafted. Some elements are fragments, stanzas plucked from larger poems or paintings taken out of a series. Each element stands alone, without title, caption, or authorial notation.

Year: Summer 2006
Edition/Volume: Volume 13
Publisher: Albert DeGenova
Contributors: Albert DeGenova, P. Hertel, Kathleen Rooney, Helen Degen Cohen, Charles Rossiter, Jeff McMahon, Eric Sundquist, Ron Czerwien, Prairie Markussen, Samuel W. Harnish, Jr., Neil Antonio Diamente, Charlie Newman, Jennifer Bisbing, Maureen Tolman Flannery, Nikki Paley Cox, Lynn Fitzgerald, M. Willet, Larry Janowski, Paul Freidinger, Kristy Bowen
Subjects: Poetry, Art
Keywords:
Abstract: Featured writer: Kristy Bowen. 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.
