Issue 371

About The Cover: Our Local Literary Issue boasts book artist Claire Taylor’s broadside art. She also takes inspiration from bookplates and includes the phrase “Ex Libris,” which indicates to whom a book belongs. Per the fox carrying a book, natural and whimsical imagery is a hallmark of bookplate art. Read about Taylor here and find more of her work on Instagram @clairetaylor.art.
