Peripheral Vision is The Telling Room’s 2025-2026 Statewide Anthology. It invites us to turn and look closer at those memories, experiences, imaginations, and voices that are often ignored. This Telling Room anthology reminds us to stay aware of our surroundings, take in the truths of those around us, and broaden the scope of our perception. To truly be seen ourselves, we must be open to the stories of others, even the ones that make us uncomfortable. From twenty-six towns across Maine, the writers in Peripheral Vision ages eight to eighteen look closely at themselves and the world, offering us a lens (and sometimes a mirror) through which to view the world we live in.
