e pluribus, pluribus

The essays, stories, and poems in this collection are too varied to characterize as a group, and that's as it should be. Subjects include language, basketball, cooking, reading, travel, artificial joints, computers, and portraiture. The writers confront questions of history, culture, and identity. They bring profoundly personal perspectives to their work. Their pieces jostle against each other as they jostle the reader.
