Publisher's Synopsis
Welcome to the second print issue of Nixes Mate Review featuring new voices and returning voices. In this issue, we tackle memory and mortality and what it means to publish in a winter that seems like a memory. Is it early Spring in New England when it's 60 degrees Fahrenheit out in February? Is it late winter when, a week earlier, it was -8 degrees Fahrenheit? Is it even winter when Boston has only received 8 inches snow versus its usual 2 feet by the middle of February? Where are the Nor'easters? Are we speaking too soon, jinxing us here at Nixes Mate headquarters surrounded by a rising and warming sea? Will we retain a memory of the winter that wasn't long after it fades?
