77: 2024 Poetry Contest - Digital 
72: 2022 Passager Winter Issue
Soft cover | 160 pages
The pieces in this issue reflect the skill, passion and the strong creative spark of our writers. And love, too. Read Patrick J. Murphy’s “This Bank and Shoal of Time” and your heart will open. Or “Darts” by Chris Carbaugh. Spend time with Tom Ritchie’s painting (cover) and hear the winter landscape speak to you.
