News: Summer 2005 Irreantum
By Wm Morris | 8.22.05
Irreantum editor Laraine Wilkins has posted the table of contents to the summer ‘05 edition to the AML List. I reproduce it below for the benefit of non-subscribers. This particular issue may be of interest to those who don’t faithfully follow the world of Mormon fiction — it’s theme is spiritual autobiography.
Irreantum subscriptions can be ordered online. Unfortunately, individual issues are not available at the moment. Although you may be able to find them for sale in your more discriminating LDS bookstores.

There was a time I wondered if this theme would become the LDS genre.
