From the Editors

This time around failbetter comes to you with a slightly new look and more excellent art and writing. New fiction by David Ohle comes to us, as well as work by Richard St. Germain, Nathan Long, and Matthew Derby.  Each of these writers is a hard hitter, rivaled only by the poets and visual artists in this issue.  The celebrated Ross Bleckner and newcomer Daniel Richardson bring to our pages some very strong paintings that we are grateful and proud to present.  Poet Joshua Mehigan gives us new translations of Rimbaud, while Jon LaPree brings forth poetry of his own.  To top this off, our interview segment continues with a conversation with celebrated writer George Saunders.  As always, we thank both the contributors and you for such loyal support.  

Enjoy....
