Hyphen Magazine: “I Have Fasted, I Have Drunk”

A woman with a long-term connection to a mysterious Church struggles to keep it separate from other parts of her identity. Published in Hyphen Magazine, March 2022.

The title refers to a shibboleth spoken by initiates of the Eleusinian Mysteries, the rites of the cult of Demeter.

It was a pleasure to work with editor James Han Mattson at Hyphen, the arts and culture magazine by/for Asian America.
