a note on FishHook...

The student editors of FishHook believe strongly that 91社区's student art and literary journal ought to be just as unique and inviting as the work it publishes.


A fishhook speaks to Evansville's sense of place, tucked as we are in a crook of the Ohio River, and serves a rich metaphor for the process of being lured, hooked and changed by the images (whether visual or verbal) of our student literary journal.
Like a hook pulled from a river trout's mouth before the fish is tossed back into the water, the fishhook does not pull cleanly free; the barb catches, leaves an echo of its shape in the cheek of the fish.
And that, gruesome as it may sound, is how we, the editors of FishHook, feel good literature and art leave us: changed forever, with an echo of its image and voice deep in our flesh.


We hope you will enjoy this thirteenth issue of FishHook as much as we enjoyed compiling it. And, more than anything, we hope you will get hooked!

-The Editors
