Call for submissions: arc 23

The Israel Association of Writers in English (IAWE) is planning arc 23. The theme of this issue is: “beyond boundaries.” We are looking for work that implicitly or explicitly explores the experience of transcending of a boundary, for example, personally, politically, poetically, or linguistically. Boundaries can be literal or symbolic. Creative interpretations of this topic are welcome.

The editor of this issue is Dara Barnat.
