Longtime THE2NDHAND contributor Joe Meno’s "In the Avenues of Airplanes and Paper" -- about a young woman's alienating obsession with putting "air quotes" around virtually everything she says, which ultimately makes her human -- marks the fourth in a series of broadsheets and minisheets we're publishing leading into celebration of THE2NDHAND’s 10+ years of publishing with All Hands On: THE2NDHAND After 10, a Reader, now available for order.

Meno is the author of, most recently, the novel The Great Perhaps, as well as short story collections Demons in the Spring (Akashic) and Bluebirds Used to Croon in the Choir (Northwestern) and the novels The Boy Detective Fails and Hairstyles of the Damned, among others. He is on the faculty of Columbia College in Chicago, where he lives and writes.
