Issue 142
Summer & Fall 2012

You are currently looking at the fifth issue of TriQuarterly Online, and it's a good one. We're very excited to feature recordings of some of our poets reading their work. John Bresland was kind enough to curate another set of video essays for us, each one constructed around a single image. You'll also find the work of poets Ghalib and Yang Zi translated from Urdu and Chinese, respectively, and we're proud to host three new poems from Sharon Olds. We have fresh creative nonfiction from the likes of Sven Birkerts, Monica Berlin, and Ander Monson, who also sends photos. Finally, this issue's fiction includes astronauts, Keats, and X-Men, among other things (but what else could you want, really?). We truly hope you enjoy this issue as much as we do. Send praise and grumblings to triquarterlyonline@northwestern.edu. --L.P.

Contributor's Note
What's with all these hapless, ineffectual young men?
I’ve scrawled this question countless times in the margins of essays I could never quite finish writing.
