• Contents of Vintage Tsunami Anthology Revealed

    by  • December 26, 2011 • News

    While putting together the newly updated List for 2012, I found out a little more about the mysterious anthology about the March 11th tsunami and earthquake coming out from Vintage that we talked about here a few weeks ago.

    Anyway, the book, which was tentatively called “One Year Later,” is now called March Was Made of Yarn and doing my research I found a list of the contents of the book at Powell’s. And it has an amazing list of contributors. I’m just going to copy and paste from the Powell’s listing below:
