Since its debut in 1984, Island Journal, the Island Institute's annual publication, has celebrated Maine's island and coastal communities through stories, art, and poetry about the myriad facets of “islandness” — found not only in Maine, but also on islands around the world.
Island Journal 2019, Volume 35, offers insights into island and coastal life through personal profiles and stories, fiction and poetry, and stunning photography and art. This year's edition highlights storm surge, sea level rise, and how coastal communities are mitigating and adapting for our changing climate across different geographic areas.
