Xanadu '86
Description
Whereas Xanadu 1984 wanted to incorporate more color and design into the literary magazine, Xanadu 1986 chooses instead to utilize a more straightforward and minimalistic design. Despite the design choices, the pieces chosen in Xanadu 1986 are anything but minimalistic. Following the spirit of the past publications, Xanadu '86 offers new perspectives with written works from individuals in the local penitentiary (Red Streaks by Angel Petros; 1967’ Nam Poem by Francisco C. Camacho), the harrowing tales from former victims of war (A Jail Without Walls: Naren’s Story by Joan Zensen), creative works from local ROTC members (The Legendary Origins of the University of Guam’s Gold Warrior), and even a poem that takes a very strong stance on a highly topical and political debate (We…, They…, All of Us… by Victoria Stovall).
Artistic works of pottery, weaving, photography, and art which feature, some of which incorporate the use of natural foliage and debris.
