Welcome back! We hope you are ready to dive into the school year with our August 31, 2007 issue of READ Magazine.
This first issue travels. We at READ look to literature to guide us through journeys that permanently alter our hearts and minds. Our Reader's Theater play is an adaptation of Homer's epic poem The Odyssey, the journey to end all journeys. It is the story of Odysseus's long travels home from the Trojan War. Although the war is over, his adventure is just beginning. How many tests, changes, and delays must Odysseus undergo before he can return to his homeland? And when he arrives, will he be the same?
This issue also features a fiction story titled "Bad Blood," by Will Weaver. It is the story of Jared Righetti, a con artist whose art gets called into question.
Our nonfiction piece follows the physical journey of Lewis and Clark on their travels across America. These are excerpts from their travel journals.
We hope you enjoy Issue One of READ magazine. If you have any comments, questions, concerns, or if you just want to say hello, you can write to us at read@weeklyreader.com. And don't forget to check out our literary blog, WORD, at www.readandwriting.com!
Here’s to a great year!
