Short reads for march

This month, I’ve got three pieces for you that all play with the idea of perspective shifting: imagining someone else’s perspective and/or slipping in and out of one’s own perspective. They’re all very different, but each is delightfully thought-provoking in its own way!

Poetry: “Race,” by Elizabeth Alexander

Short fiction: “A Continuity of Parks,” by Julio Cortázar

Nonfiction: “You Could Live Here Alone Forever,” by Smith Henderson
