Issue #10: Adaption

In natural Darwinian fashion, this adaptation-themed issue of Memewar follows our issue on movement. First comes the change, and then the reaction to that change. Thus, each of the pieces published in this historic tenth issue explores an aspect of change, whether it is personal or emotional transformation, or collective cultural or linguistic change. Featuring work by Theresa Kishkan, Lydia Cambron, Neil Rayner, Maria Lenart, Jennifer Hardwick, and an interview with dancer Emily Molnar.
