I’m thrilled to have a new essay in the latest issue of River Teeth. The piece is called “Partisans,” and it’s about the time I dragged my wife to the outskirts of Valladolid, Mexico, to the home of a racist Crimson Tide fan, just so I could watch an important Ohio State game (the 2005 matchup with Texas, the first time the two schools had ever met in football). Not one of my proudest moments. Come to River Teeth for my yapping; stay for stunning essays by writers such as Sonya Huber, Jerald Walker, and Rebecca McClanahan.
