Issue One

Inside is a collection of fiction, essays, poetry, and art exploring the relationship between people and their cars.

There are short stories centered on a lost car, a yellow car, a bus, and a classic Jaguar. A diary documenting the resurrection of a Datsun. Photography and paintings that extend the idea of the automobile beyond the road. Also included are an epic poem about Henry Ford, a haibun on gas money, an essay on performance-artist race car drivers, and a series of meditations on the vehicles we rely on in our search for home.
