The Jesuit Journal – Spring 2024 Issue

-

The spring issue of The Jesuit Journal puts in print another stunning artwork by Jonathan Shu ’27, whose portrait made the cover.  Andrew McMahon ’25 published a poem in the Journal for the first time, a pastiche of Shakespeare’s “Sonnet 116.”  Evan Velasquez ’24, a frequent contributor to the magazine since his sophomore year, capped off his Journal career with a short fiction piece.  Unlike the sci-fi and fantasy stories he has published before, this one takes place in the world of Wall Street, the Federal Reserve, and bank heists.
