Storia di un amore moderno
by Daniela Giovannetti PEDRO HUGO GARCÍA PELÁEZIsaan e Moyna avevano vissuto, fin dalla più tenera età, uno accanto all'altro e, tuttavia, non si conoscevano di persona. Avevano due anni di differenza e lui andava al collegio per maschietti e lei a quello per femminucce, separati solo da un muro, e c'era una così grande varietà di bimbi intorno a loro che sarebbe stato difficile conoscersi al di là del muro. Quando dico muro lo dico in senso letterale, visto che il collegio per bambine era da una parte, sopra, e un muro di una decina metri lo separava dal collegio per maschietti, sotto, e i due continuavano così a vivere fianco a fianco ma senza conoscersi. Uno dei migliori amici di Isaan aveva una sorella che era una delle migliori amiche di Moyna.

Stories From the Polycule: Real Life in Polyamorous Families
by Elisabeth Sheff Tikva WolfWelcome to the polycule: the network created by the interconnections of polyamorous relationships. Just like the molecules that make up all living things, polycules come in diverse forms: large, small, tightly bound, loosely connected, static, ever-changing. How do polycules form, what do they look like, how do they transform through time, and how do they, sometimes, end?The first of its kind, this anthology brings together stories, poems, drawings and essays created by real people living in polycules. Children describe life with more than two parents; adults share what it's like to parent with more than one partner. We hear from triads, solos, people who have felt polyamorous their entire lives, and people exploring poly for the first time. Some whimsical, some hilarious, some heartbreaking, some mundane, some life-changing—all pieces reflect the diverse reality of polyamorous families.
