Gallery

John W. Macdonald is the unofficial photographer of Ottawa’s literary Scene. Although not a writer like Carl Van Vechten, he is still to Ottawa what the former was to the Harlem Renaissance in terms of visual arts. His lenses are indispensable to the archiving of Ottawa’s unfolding scribal history.

Poetry

American Trauma

Afam Akeh

There is a hole in the ground the dead cannot fill.

Only memory can feed it. And silence,

that populous sound. What the world calls power

is suddenly rubble, concrete piled on grief.

Fiction

Strangers

Tashania Colquhoun

When I was 14, my mother moved a stranger into our apartment. A few days before he arrived, while we ate our TV dinners in the couch as we watched the channel 7 news, she said that someone would be coming to stay with us. Who? I asked. My husband, she said.
