The PHiXLocal Author Trenton Coleman Releases Sequel to Successful Short Story Anthology

Leah LeMoineSeptember 21, 2023

Still No Time for Clocks: Stories from Tipton County, Ohio (self-published, $24.99), Trenton Coleman’s follow-up to his 2005 collection of short stories, No Time for Clocks, rejoins his fictional cast of characters in his home state 20 years later. They’re a little older, a little wiser and much more reflective. The deeper rumination is no doubt a result of the Phoenix author and retired pediatric nurse’s terminal diagnosis of congestive heart failure in November 2021....

The PHiXRead It: Love Buzz

Leah LeMoineMay 23, 2023

Fans of rom-coms by the likes of Emily Henry, Helen Hoang and Rebecca Serle will find familiar satisfaction in Love Buzz (Harper Perennial, $17.99), the debut novel of Phoenix writer Neely Tubati Alexander. Like those best-selling scribes, Tubati Alexander mingles romance with career concerns, friend and family issues, and personal growth for a tale that’s as moving as it is steamy. Love Buzz starts with a Mardi Gras meet-cute in a Bourbon Street bar between...

The PHiXRead It: Carmen The Graphic Novel

Leah LeMoineJanuary 19, 2023

Perhaps more than any other opera, Georges Bizet’s Carmen lends itself to fanciful adaptations. In 1990 there was Carmen on Ice, starring skaters Katarina Witt and Brian Boitano. In 2001 there was Carmen: A Hip Hopera, starring Beyoncé Knowles. In 2022, Arizona Opera entered the fray with CARMEN: The Graphic Novel (Clover Press, $35). The 112-page narrative comic was funded by a Kickstarter campaign and is the brainchild of opera director and tenor Alek Shrader,...

Desert Digest Food & DrinkHappy Hour: The Bar – Gilbert

Leah LeMoineJanuary 17, 2023

It occupies a sweet spot...
