Winter/Spring 2023: Grave New World (Issue #55)

Author: ND Review

The cover of the Notre Dame Review issue 55, depicting a young woman with windblown hair and a bandage on her cheek. She wears a black sweater and appears against a backdrop of swirling gray and white brushstrokes.

Grave New World

Issue 55 of the Notre Dame Review shows us it's a Grave New World out there. We are at a crossroads in this world between the dangers of climate change and an increase of autocratic leaders attempting to drag everyone back into the past. The artists and authors featured in this issue grapple with the possibilities of what is to come while demonstrating that the people of the world will not go quietly. Enjoy works by James Davis May, John Poch, KateLynn Hibbard, and Jenny Husk among others.

Here is our web extra from the print version, Julie Anne Long in Conversation with Taylor Thomas.
