LINEA Volume 1

Description

Inaugural edition of LINEA, a literary journal of micro fiction.

In Praise of LINEA:

“LINEA is a small, hand bound edition, beautifully constructed, expertly designed and edited. It is valuable not only as a work of art, but also for the dedication to experimentation and joy.

As the dynamics of publishing have been radically altered through technology and economic forces, it is important to note that this project is like a well-tended garden, cultivating vision and elegance, and helping to nourish our community.”

-Lisa F. Enzer, M.Ed

“… LINEA is a magazine of short fiction, an experiment with form relevant to 21st Century readers, to the urgency of their lives: Compressed, as you read, the form explodes into meaning.

(LINEA) is the brainchild and labor of love of three local women: Adell Donaghue, Carol Edelstein and Elizabeth George. Adell, a visual artist, writer and educator who lives and works (respectively) in Southampton and Easthampton, MA, founded Simian Press which publishes LINEA. Adell is not only LINEA’s publisher, but its designer. She also drew the illustrations in the book, marking a confluence between visual art and writing, an intersection that deepens LINEA’s relevance: among the current generation of writers and artists across the country, boundaries between form are blurring.”
