A Constellation of Dichotomies
The latest addition to STORYGLOSSIA Issue 20 is "Difference" by Shubha Venugopal, which, as the title suggests, thrives on dichotomies. It's those manipulations of language and the wealth of particular details that elevates what is essentially a flat narrative line until the exchange of dialogue on the home stretch shows the black hole in the relationship.
Shubha Venugopal is completing an MFA in fiction from Bennington College. She also holds a PhD in English and recently joined the faculty at California State University, Northridge. Her works are upcoming or have appeared in Post Road, Gambara, Word Riot, VerbSap, Flashquake, Literary Mama, Antithesis Common, The Angler, Elimae, Eclectica, Mslexia, Kalliope, Boston Literary Magazine, and Women Writers: A Zine.
And don't forget, the STORYGLOSSIA Fiction Prize 2007 contest is now open for submissions. First prize is $1000. Deadline for entries is July 15, 2007.
