BLACK SCAT REVIEW--NOIR--AND OBSESSION

I've had the pleasure and privilege of appearing in a few lit mags over the years. Black Scat Review counts among the most exquisite in terms of its look and includes an unusually interesting cast of international authors such as Alphonse Allais, Adrienne Auvray, Paulo Brito, William L. Gibson, Agnes Potier, Douglas Skinner, Mercie Pedro e Silva, among others, in its current issue on "Obsession." The piece of mine that is included is titled, "A Play of Jeans," and pays homage to Jean Seberg as well as the art of cinema.

If you are a reader who is fond of noir, dada, surrealism, existentialism or radicalism explore Black Scat Review. And if you are a writer who is drawn to these realms, you have found your niche.

Here's an excerpt from The Obsession Issue #16:

"They sat together on the beach in silence. It was drizzling and he cupped his hands against the wind as he lit up. He had felt hungry before, but now all he wanted was the cigarette. She was boring a hole through his side, knowing he sensed it. He pretended not to notice, and continued to puff in silence. In the water three mallard ducks with shiny green heads were gliding past, bobbing in and out, filtering the briny food through their bills in the mud. She looked over at him again, and this time he offered her his cigarette."

--From "Out of Time," by Adrienne Auvray
