Azahares Literary Magazine
Azahares is UAFS's premier Spanish-language literary magazine. The primary purpose of this
magazine is to provide students and community members with a literary space for writing
and artwork that presents the themes of the Latin@ experience. At Azahares, we're looking for fresh work: poetry that transports us into new perspectives; prose
that makes us laugh or cry or sigh with satisfaction; art that lifts us towards the
sublime or sooths us like un chocolatito caliente on a cold evening. We particularly
enjoy publishing works that illustrate the best of what it means to be human.
The azahar, or orange blossom, is a flower of special meaning, forming part of the
iconic tradition of the Spanish-speaking world, embodying a freshness of spirit and
perspective captured with this publication. Azahares welcomes student work as well as submissions from all members of the community.
