Prose: “The Box Left Behind” By Reema Saleh

Evening light ripped pink through the sky as Aisha ran up the hill with paint-splotched high tops that didn’t change from season to season. She made her way up the hill to the house overlooking the lake, half-expecting the blue tones of the house to fade, half-expecting the hill to be empty, like the old house withered […]

Poetry: “Migration” By Emma Demopoulos

It was an easy ba-da-bum joke
Not so much funny as clever
A bubble in my chest burst into a million
So they flew out my mouth like a swarm
of butterflies, monarchs flying […]

REVIEW: Minotaur and Other Stories by Salvatore Difalco

Salvatore Difalco is a much-published author from Toronto.  “The Teeth,” collected in his recent Minotaur and Other Stories, was first published in the Winter 2018 issue of Euphony Journal. Minotaur and Other Stories is a slow read in the best possible way.  Yes, these are meditative, brooding stories (though there are a few page-turners mixed […]

REVIEW: Fake News Poems by Martin Ott

Martin Ott is a writer from Los Angeles.  In April of 2014, Euphony Journal published “Fireside Chat,” a collaborative poem between Ott and John F. Buckley, online.  Fake News Poems is Ott’s eighth book. The concept that underpins Martin Ott’s Fake News Poems is compelling, of course: for every week of 2017, Ott took a […]
