Hi readers!
Welcome to the Spring 2023 issue of the Troubadour Literary and Arts Magazine. This year’s theme is Innocence & Experience, an aspect of life that is common to all. As high schoolers, we have experienced so much, yet so little at the same time. We have lost our innocence but have also retained some purity. Through this year’s theme, we have explored this complex development, reflecting on childhood experiences and their impact on our identities.
Personally, being a part of this publication for the past two years has been a deeply thought-provoking experience. I had a wonderful time working to make this magazine the best it can be. I would like to thank our hard-working advisor Mr. Gillespie, the unique and creative Troubadour staff, and everyone who made a submission for contributing to this issue.
I hope you all enjoy this edition of Troubadour, filled with many pieces of literary and artistic excellence.
