The Sun is an independent, ad-free, monthly magazine that for forty years has explored the splendor and heartache of the human condition. From its inception in 1974, The Sun has attempted to marry the personal and the political, honor the transcendent as well as the irreverent, and explore the transformative moments of our daily lives. This reading features editor and founder, Sy Safransky, and three writers whose courageous personal writing has appeared in The Sun.
