The Quantum Theory of Love and Madness by Jerry Levy

The Quantum Theory of Love and Madness by Jerry Levy

I was first introduced to the prose of Canadian writer Jerry Levy in 2012 when his story “Paris is a Woman,” about a bank clerk who trades his wife and job for an artist’s life in Paris, featured in issue #9 of Lowestoft Chronicle. As I recall, it was a rather captivating piece with a gently evolving story that might have gone in any number of directions but which concluded in an unanticipated, unresolved way. A tale with the emphasis on character over plot, but no less enjoyable because of it. The story was subsequently included in Levy’s first story collection, URBAN LEGEND, published by Thistledown Press in 2013.

Issue 43 of Lowestoft Chronicle

In a recent interview in the South Florida Poetry Journal poet George Moore, author of Children’s Drawings of the Universe, among other fine collections, singled out the literary magazine Lowestoft Chronicle for the consistent quality and variety of its poetry. “I was bred on print journals, of course, but I’ve gotten close to a number of online journals that I stay in touch with and read whenever a notice of a new issue comes up. I keep up with Lowestoft Chronicle, who do a fine job with a range of poetic tastes.”
