notequite a bit of fantasy or apparent fantasy material in this issue: the stories by Schifferes, both Wandreis, Eckman (marginally at least, as plot partly viewed through mind of a cat) and Engen (hypnotism), plus the poems by Montague and Barthelemy on fantasy subjects at least.

The Sarchet story is a fantasy; the only such I noted in these three issues (though Im only skimming and could have missed something). Details supplied by Denny Lien. |
note: The Quarterly Prize for prose went to Howard Wandrei for The Romany Rye and that for poetry to Louis Evans for Wind-Thirst. Monica Crawczyk placed second in prose and Donald Wandrei in poetry. The Spring 1932 was the last issue of Minnesota Quarterly until a revival (Fall 1948 through Spring 1950, which Ill likely index later). Theres nothing in the Spring issue to indicate a suspension was planned. Details supplied by Denny Lien. |

note: the Nicholson poem is Windstorm in the Table of Contents and Wind Storm on page 48. I dont know if the Harold Adams in this issue is the Minnesota-based detective story writer (1923- ) or not, but it seems probable as he got a bachelors degree at the U of MN in 1950. Details supplied by Denny Lien. |
also, photographs by Charles Alden of sculptures by Harold Adams. No indication of why material from presumtive non-U of MN folks Feikema, Farrell, and Derleth is present, not that Im complaining. Details supplied by Denny Lien. |

Photos or illoes on almost every page. Its mostly non-fiction and Ive only indexed the fiction. In the brief editorial called Minster Chimes it comes out with the usual guff about being pleased with the reception it has received and that it hopes it is filling a gap. It says it is intended primarily as a Church magazine, and thats not only obvious from the title but evident from the articles which are very theological and ecclesiastical.
