#TBT: Kyle Minor, “Glossolalia”

For today’s #TBT here is a quote from Kyle Minor’s story “Glossolalia” from issue 34.2.

“That’s something that worries me. It’s a little bit frightening, don’t you think, like on TV, when a lot of people are doing it all around and there’s this ungodly cacophony?”
“That’s the fear of the Lord you’re feeling.”
“How can you be sure?”
“How can you be sure of anything? You know. I know. I know that I know that I know.”

You can buy copies of this or any issue of cream city review here!

And remember to come hear Kyle Minor read at cream city Live! on November 6th!
