Hush
Interactive Chapbooks: Spring 2025
Concept
Inspired by The Iron Curtain by Gail Hosking and October Crisis by Paulette Swartzfager. As a child living through an unknown crisis, distract yourself to calm your anxiety while you listen in on your parents and learn more about what they are afraid of.
October crisis
New Orleans became paralyzed. Florida began to be evacuated and people were pouring up through Georgia and the Carolinas…people sensed that they were going to die. Philip Francis Berrigan (October 22, 1962) i under the wooden cross beneath our classroom clock
Near the Iron Curtain
The noise of my childhood—so near the border with foreignness served up and unfurled. Always confusing about those Russians sure to attack at any moment. Phone calls at midnight—was it war this time? I learned to anchor myself
