IN THIS ISSUE #14.
The EAP dinner party goes smart casual.
The discussion gets serious, and the younger writers weigh in — SEAN WATKIN on what it's like to be young and gay in the European Capital of Culture 2008: QUEERPOOL: A CULTURED CAPITAL …Then CHLOE HANSEN loves black metal music, but gives it a sharp eyed look in A FAN DISSECTS BLACK METAL. In New York, OLIVIA SANDOVAL goes back in time, all the way to punk, in BALLOON WATCHING.
And MAX VERNON contributes song lyrics — politburo technocrats and prophesizing maniacs — while he and LINDA SANDOVAL duet in INTERVIEW WITH AN INTELLIGENT TEENAGER.
VITOMIR MARJANOVIĆ comes a long way to the party with POEMS FROM A SERBIAN TEENAGER . The problems and joys of growing up from STEPHANIE SIDES and JOANNA CUEVAS in THE TRANSITION TO COLLEGE and WHAT I WISH I'D KNOWN: FINDING A MENTOR.
MIKE MADRID complains about what gets lost in the IPod shuffle in THE LOST WORLD (or Grandpa Misses His Victrola)…
And ALEX COX has ADVICE TO YOUNG FILMMAKERS . He's serious, too, even if #1 is "Don't do it."
THE RED CAMP is back, and Emily wishes she had someone else's parents. And in SNOTTY SAVES THE DAY: Chapter 22 Snotty really does save it, even if by now he's someone else altogether.
Also: special EAP guest RUDY WURLITZER introduces BRENDAN GREENBERG , the youngest of the new EAP young writers, and his night of the PSYCHO SITTER …
The Todblog continues. JAM TODAY is sure you can find autonomy through cooking. And ASK WENDY warily advises a 60 year old on how to get the right date.
THIS MONTH'S EDITORIAL goes the Emancipatory Way…
(In this month's photo, two of EAP's new writers shock the older generation with their slovenly and rebellious dress sense…)
Next month: BORDER CROSSINGS issue appears 15 August.
