IN PREVIOUS ISSUES

Blackbird publishes new issues twice a year. The notion of "issue" is both a nod to the print journal and a way for us to call attention to the new work of a limited number of writers. However, publishing online allows us keep all issues available for reading, listening, and viewing. On this page, we wish to point you toward some of the content you may have missed but which still lives in our Archives.

In our previous issue, November, 2004, we published "The Feeder," a ten-poem sequence with audio by Ellen Bryant Voigt. As part of our series of audio features, we also added a lecture given at the 26th Annual Festival of Poetry, held at The Frost Place in New Hampshire, and an interview with Blackbird's Gregory Donovan.

In our premiere issue, April, 2002, we published "Dream House," a short story by Lily Tuck. That story was eventually included in her collection The News from Paraguay (HarperCollins, 2004), which won her the National Book Award for 2004.
   Lily Tuck, April 2002

In our current issue, we have two poems by Romanian poet Liliana Ursu, translated by Ursu, Tess Gallagher, and Adam J. Sorkin. In our April, 2002, issue, we published our first translations, three poems by Danish poet Inge Pederson, translated by Marilyn Nelson.
