<td valign="top">[fwiw: this is my all-time favorite
magazine; "<i>Not everyone is prepared for the stark
reality in The Sun with its often poignant writing and
haunting black and white photographs. The whole magazine
is like an intelligent compassionate friend who
perceptively articulates your innermost thoughts and
dreams</i>." Utne Reader awarded Safransky's publication
its Alternative Press Award, calling it "<i>a magazine
completely unlike any other, always personal, always
meaningful, always unexpected</i>."<br>
<br>
"<i>Unfortunately, you're not likely to find The Sun at your
regular newsstand. Many distributors won't carry it
because it's not 'commercial' enough: we don't carry
advertising; and we regularly print pieces that are too
risky, too personal, too sad, too something. Yet somehow
the magazine finds its way into the right hands; readers
who appreciate writing that doesn't talk down to them or
up to them, but meets their level gaze</i>." editor, Sy
Safranksy<br>
