Big Hands #5

Big Hands #5

by Aaron Smith

A new issue of Big Hands, finds our author just as frustrated and perceptive as ever. Back in North Carolina, Aaron flashes back to not-quite-romances gone sour and old teenage routines of free movies and food samples. There's aimless driving in beat-up cars, a single chat line rendezvous gone wrong, and a walk through the night mist with a girl from a party. The stories in this zine are achingly nostalgic and yet still intelligently reflective. Big Hands epitomizes that hopeful stagnation of knowing what we want, and knowing this isn't it.
