Highland Park, Los Angeles is a character in and of itself. UCR alumnus Jaime Parker Stickle renders this neighborhood through the watchful eye of Corey Tracey-Lieberman, protagonist of Vicious Cycle. Returning to this setting in Take Hart, her second novel and the second installment in the Corey in Los Angeles series, Stickle once again dives into a world of "post-partum noir," balancing humor with explorations of identity all under the context of crime. Today on the blog, TCR's Julie Colbrese talks with Jaime Parker Stickle about her winding path to publishing and her unique viewpoints regarding the human experience.

Today on the blog, TCR's Geordie Stock talks with Provost about writing and working on this film, especially in the wake of the USA's 250th anniversary.

Sometimes it takes a “Paradise Lost” to get the point across. Other times, what is left unstated carries weight, and we are the richer for not having it spelled out for us. Charles Grosel displays masterful restraint in today’s featured poem, “New River Rising,” saying just enough to haunt his reader indefinitely.
