The Talking of Hands: Unpublished Writing by New Rivers Press Authors"For this anthology New Rivers has invited its many alumni to submit writing that represents their current work. Each piece appears here for the first time. Some might imagine this collection as the inviting scent of fresh baked bread . . . I see our anniversary edition as much like the dazzling couple straggling out of a party at dawn, passing you on the sidewalk headed to work as they announce, 'You'll never believe what you've missed.'" -David Haynes, from the Introduction. |
