Mother’s Day Gift: Segullah Subscription

Posted by | May 2, 2008 | Comments Off

Mother’s Day is in eight days–can I recommend a gift subscription to Segullah for your mom/wife/friend? Our Spring issue, Roots and Branches, is at the presses now, and it’s wonderful. I am so excited about it. I was trying to be all professional about this announcement, something like “From the stunning cover by Cassandra Barney, to the poignant final essay “Too Late to Say Good-bye,” Roots and Branches is a must-read.” But really, the stiff language there does not convey just how much I love this issue!!!! Look at all those exclamation points! I’m going crazy with them. Here are just a few highlights:

Art by sisters Cassandra Barney and Emily McPhie.

Poetry by Darlene Young, including the poem “Since You Were Born,” which I cannot read without weeping.

Justine’s essay “Names,” about her connection to her maiden name and her grandma, who was a World War II refugee.

The quirky tale of looking too much like her sister, from Lisa Rumsey Harris (winner of our 2006 Heather Campbell Essay Contest).

How did Eve react to her first time of the month? Powerful poem from Elizabeth Cranford.

Julie Smith, from Times and Seasons, discusses why these women in Jesus’ Genealogy.

There’s also Cream of Wheat, exotic Italian men, sheep shearing, famous Mormon opera singers, deep Southern drawls, and all manner of excellent poetry.

You can order a gift subscription here. And as an enticing sample, here’s a link to that amazing poem by Darlene Young.

Happy Mother’s Day!

New: We are also offering a dollar off per issue for the first five people who subscribe and write “Mother’s Day” in the Paypal notes. That’s a year’s subscription for only $12.
