Ha Jin on the Art of Fiction.

An interview with Mary Karr: “In memoir, the only through-line is character represented by voice. So you better make a reader damn curious about who’s talking.”

Poetry from James Schuyler and Robert Hass.

A dispatch from the high plains of eastern Congo by Lieve Joris.

New stories by Aimee Bender, Patricio Pron, and Carsten René Nielsen.

Plus Benjamin Percy's encounters with the animal world; a folio of photographs by Massimo Vitali; winter poetry by Marianne Boruch, Cathy Park Hong, Dorothea Tanning; and more.
