Sugar Sea: On Artist Andrea Chung (essay)
AGNI 95

Conflicts and reckonings. Flags held and changed and changed again, in Ukrainian poet Yuliya Musakovska’s “Such Love” (translated with Olena Jennings) and Robert Pinsky’s “Place Names.” Journeys at the edge of competing intentions, in stories by Koye Oyedeji and Mariana Villas-Boas. Prose from the multiplicities of self by Alex Marzano-Lesnevich, Kelle Groom, and Khairaini Barokka. And poems that reexamine the surface, by Victoria Chang, Kimiko Hahn, Charlie Clark, and D. Nurkse. Artist Andrea Chung tears through the cover.
