Lonely in America -- Chicago Radio -- Cleveland -- Manhattanville Part I -- In Search of Face -- Multiply/Divide -- The Personal -- Post Logical Notes on Self-Election -- Cowboy Horizon -- Procedural -- Manhattanville Part II -- When the Sea Comes for Us -- Norway.;I have never been particularly interested in slavery, perhaps because it is such an obvious fact of my family's history. The fact that I am descended from slaves is hard to acknowledge on a day-to-day basis, because slavery does not fit with my self-image. Perhaps this is because I am pretty certain I would not have survived it. Wendy S. Walters, Bookforum, the Iowa Review, and many other publications.
