Women Reading Across Boundaries at Women and Children First Bookstore
[CHICAGO] A multicultural collection of women authors, including Margin contributors Constance Vogel and M.

The anthology features poems and short stories that have won awards for authors in competitions sponsored by Jane's Stories Press Foundation, the nonprofit publisher, which sponsors programs for emerging and established writers who are underrepresented in the publishing industry, focusing on writing by women over 50 and under 24, and by women of color.
