These authors center their work around themes like searching for hope, running from fear, braving adversity, and finding radiance as they tackle the broader topic of Blur. Read about hyperfocus, falling, Deja Vu, floating, flying, canvas, and Deja Vu.

From the publisher: “This anthology of poetry, short fiction, personal stories, and visual art created and edited by Cleveland area teens, collects responses to a question: what does blur mean to you? Teen creators answer by telling a story about a misty forest, snapping a photo through a foggy, rain-streaked window, and leading the reader on a journey to a refrigerator in the middle of the rainforest. (Yes, you read that right!) These are just a few of the many insightful, heartfelt, and powerful ways that the authors and artists in this collection explain what blur means to them.”
