In this issue, contributors tackle the theme of Freedom through story, poetry, and art. This collection of contemporary works challenges and re-imagines what it means to be free in today's environment through unique and diverse perspectives. Issue 24 of Stonecoast Review explores the following questions: What does it mean to be "free"? What happens when one's freedom infringes on someone else's? How does it feel when freedoms are taken away?

Stonecoast Review is edited by students and alumni from Stonecoast’s low-residency MFA Program in Creative Writing through the University of Southern Maine.
