The Delmarva Review Emily Rich

Amidst the uncertainties of life, people grasp for what is eternal in the human condition. They grasp for connection and for hope. A teacher recognizes the spark of awakening in a student's eyes; regular customers become family at a traditional corner deli. Time-honored rituals celebrate commitment; poets find comfort in the familiar landscapes and the sights and smells of home. An educator struggles to reach a troubled student, and the possibility of love blooms between two injured souls. This issue, celebrating the tenth anniversary of Delmarva Review, features 34 contributors from around the U. S. and abroad whose work touches on the themes of change and hope, among many others.
