Exciting news--an essay from Scoundrel Time literary journal has been recognized as "Notable" in the 2023 Best American Essays edited by Vivian Gornick. The essay, "A Thousand Times More than a Thousand Times More: a Working Class Boy Surveys the Altitudes of American Money" by David Engelhardt, is about trying to straddle two worlds.

And when I’m shining
my mouth harps after
a solitary session of practice,
I ask the piece of flag
if she knows when,
When will this end?

From the poem "Ultimate Multis" by the late Kevin McIlvoy at Scoundrel Time.
