It has been said that, “a literary quarterly exists to acquaint unpopular writers with one another’s writings.” That is often true: but not always. Since its founding in 1989, Image Journal has not only emerged as one of North America’s leading quarterlies but has also carved out a unique identity as the source for contemporary art and literature that grapple with the perennial questions of religious faith. In this show we will feature the book Bearing the Mystery (Eerdmans 2010), which brings together in one handsome volume the best of Image Journal’s first twenty years — The book features an all-star cast of seventy writers including Scott Cairns, Annie Dillard, Clyde Edgerton, Patricia Hampl, Ron Hansen, Edward Hirsch, Linda Hogan, Denise Levertov, Kathleen Norris, Richard Rodrieguez and Wim Wenders.Also featured are over twenty visual artists. Our first guest is Gregory Wolfe publisher and editor of Image Journal, writer-in-residence and Director of the MFA in Creative Writing Program at Seattle Pacific University. We will also feature readings from Image Journal Board member and poet Luci Shaw followed by IMAGE Journal Staffers Taylor Morris, Anna Johnson and Dyana Herron.
