I have an essay in the latest
@kenyonreview.bsky.social. It circles questions I've been asking for almost ten years now: how should a medical diagnosis shape the past? When does biology require reconciliation? And what does it mean to be emotionally fair? kenyonreview.org/piece/disease-disposition/

Less than a week left to send us something for our themed folios and/or general submissions! Find all the details about the folios and guidelines on our website. Do you have something precarious to send us?

kenyonreview.org/submit/

The precarity folio explores conditions, causes and consequences of instability. We want texts that contemplate new realities, understandings and expectations that arise in moments of upheaval, disintegration, and fundamental shift. The great tensions and possibilities, dilation of time, tipping points, notions of emergency, tightropes, free solos, gig economies, seed banks and the rise of AI.

Boosting one of my favorite pieces, out this week from @kenyonreview.bsky.social , on the life of a human cub who knows more about literature than people. I hope you find some time to spend with this piece, written by Evgenia Nekrasova and inspired by an old folk tale from Perm Krai.🐻📚🖤

As someone who immigrated to Ohio as a disoriented teen with zero English, appearing in @kenyonreview.bsky.social years later, with one of my most personal translations means a little extra. Maybe I did learn to string English words together into meanings, after all. kenyonreview.org/piece/she-be...

We’re in the & Everything After so here’s my poem with that title published by @kenyonreview.bsky.social

& Everything After

Every August the day lilies nod
& under their own weight
crush down in a circle
of stems and limp bells
& every August I forget,
imagining a deer has chosen
our home to bed beside,
sleeping inches from where
we sleep, dreaming of ourselves
perched in high hides
masked with beech leaves
as they leap and browse,
safe in sunlit pasture,
& every August you
remind me it’s just lilies
that have died
leaving a column of air
in their absence,
& when I start to argue
you remind me that
despite it all,
despite it all,
they will return.

"Ecogodliness" by Felicia Zamora is a true stunner of a poem. What a gift it is to receive it—read and listen to it (we highly recommend both!) at the link in our bio.
