RaveLightspeed MagazineTrouble the Waters features a few notable reprints ... But it’s mostly filled with lots of high-quality original work. All told it’s a stunning gathering ... Jamey Hatley’s \'Spirits Don’t Cross Over ’Til They Do\' opens on a scene reminiscent of some of the best shows and movies about warfare, but the story itself is far more thoughtful and interesting than those productions tend to be ... \'Call the Water\' by adrienne maree brown grabs you from the outset with captivating storytelling, both in delivery of lines and its intriguing characters ... One of my favorites of the book is definitely Jasmine Wade’s \'All of Us Are She\' ... Wade’s story is a metaphor for rejecting the pain and frustration of a society which really doesn’t care for you. Finding peace and power of place in your imperfect, flawed, amazing family; and becoming who you really are. It’s absolutely brilliant. If you want some wonderful tales, gathered together by a team of editors who clearly know what they’re doing, go get this book. Spend some time with these pieces, sit with them. The work on offer deserves your thoughtful attention.
