From now until the end of summer, Silver Birch Press will take you on a literary road trip. Not sure where this will lead — throughout the U.S. or around the world. It’s a nonlinear plan. We could be in New Orleans one moment and Seattle the next. Photos and literary quotes will tie the trip together. Bon voyage to us!
Young in New Orleans (excerpt)
by Charles Bukowski
There was something about
that city, though
it didn’t let me feel guilty
that I had no feeling for the
things so many others
needed.
it let me alone.
