Eaten

Jesus, Uno, Kimchi Pizza
Cecilia Hae-Jin Lee

My dad was so hardcore, he even ate his pizza with chopsticks. He did everything with chopsticks. I’ve watched my dad lie in wait with his sticks. Like a predator, he would wait and track his prey, sticks in the air, eyes tracking his victim.

Water-Gazers
Elizabeth Schulz

Festa de São João

Nonfiction

Maria Wiesner
