NEBO: A Literary Journal
Abstract
This issue of Nebo: A Literary Journal is a remarkable showcase of poetry, fiction, nonfiction, and literary criticism, highlighting a diverse range of voices and themes. Originally archived as Volume 8, Issue 2, this issue is actually Volume 13, Issue 1, covering Fall 1994. Due to necessary metadata adjustments in the digital archiving process, some volume and issue numbers in the online collection may not match those printed in the original journals.
This issue features a special section dedicated to New Formalism, a poetic movement that sought to reintroduce traditional meter and narrative structures into contemporary poetry. Notable contributors include Annie Finch, Richard Alan Bunch, Siv Cedering, and Len Krisak, whose works reflect this formalist resurgence. The fiction selections in this issue explore themes of memory, war, and loss, as seen in Grace Cash’s "My Brother Julian", a poignant historical narrative, and Jean C. Thomas’ "The Yard Sale," which examines themes of identity and materialism. The book review section provides critical insight into Western poetry and contemporary literature, adding further depth to this issue’s engagement with literary traditions.
