Another review

Prole has had another very positive review. This time at New Pages:
http://www.newpages.com/literary-magazine-reviews/2010-08-15/index.htm#Prole-1-2010
It states: 'This journal is nothing if not challenging and engaging.
Prole’s fiction and prose uses only artful story-telling,
...skillful-weaving, compact wording; no literary tricks, twists, surprise endings or jolts to deliver one deep into their vast little worlds' and 'There are excellent pieces of creative nonfiction..' Of the poetry: '...there is much to be admired.'
Thanks to all at New Pages.
