1/21/08: HAPPY NEW YEAR!
2007 was a fantastic year for Esopus and the Esopus Foundation, and we have high hopes for 2008. We're currently at work on Esopus 10, due to the printer in mid-March and on newsstands in mid-April, and it's shaping up beautifully. Check back here in February for a sneak preview.

12/20/07: MORE BACK-ISSUE CONTENT ONLINE
Select articles and projects from sold-out back issues are now available online, presented with a custom-designed Flash viewer to approximate the look and feel of the original contributions. The first offerings were from Esopus 1. We've now added three more: "Soft Serve," Daniel T. Neely's fascinating piece about ice-cream truck music in Esopus 4, and two features from Esopus 3: "Home Made," an interview with acclaimed indie band The Wrens, and "Tricks of the Trade," a found object contributed by Michael Rohatyn. Enjoy them!
