Description:
Mixed Genre. This literary anthology was born out of Philip Sterling's desire to create a forum within which to exchange stories born out of the experience of "an extended stay in a foreign place, the awareness not only of the shock of returning, but of the aftershocks, those moments and habits that recur years later, at the oddest times, the proof of living sensitively." IMPORTED BREADS features experiences shared by thirty-eight writers who stayed in thirty-one countries, and documented in fifty-six poems, seven stories, and twelve memoirs.

Features the work of Cynthia Hogue, Marvin Bell, Carolyne Wright, Richard Terrill, and many, many more.
