"The most intimate section is the prose poem-like story Nature Preserve by John Trotta—whose tiny, tender accounts of his relationship with a younger girl named Sophia are sprinkled throughout the magazine. She’s dying of cancer and wants to sleep outdoors. The elegiac, slow-paced eroticism of their day together is not expressed by what happens but by the way the sentences are paced and the mood is conveyed: 'I took her there once, just before the summer swept in, around the time the dogwoods were in bloom, when things were just gathering momentum.'"
