Description of Pictures: Jabari Asim
Fiction
F. Scott Fitzgerald Pavilion
Journalist, professor, and Guggenheim Fellow, Jabari Asim, presents his novel, "Yonder," an elegant work of monumental imagination that will reorient how we think of the legacy of America's shameful past. Asim presents a beautiful, powerful, and elegiac novel that examines intimacy and longing in the slave quarters of the South while asking a vital question: What would happen if an enslaved person risked everything for love?

2022 photos: This year included major setbacks -- including Putin's invasion of Ukraine and the Supreme Court imposing the evangelical version of sharia law -- but also some steps forward like the results of the midterms. This website had its 20th anniversary in August, 2022. Equipment this year: I continued to use my Fuji XS-1 cameras but, depending on the event, I also used a Nikon D7000. Trips this year: (February) a visit to see Dad and Dixie in Asheville, NC with some other members of my family, (July) a trip out west for the return of San Diego Comic-Con, and (October) a long weekend in New York to cover New York Comic-Con. Number of photos taken this year: about 386,000, up 2020 and 2021 levels but still way below pre-pandemic levels.
