Our ancestors, our parents, our siblings, our spouses, our children, our children’s children. Family trees, pedigrees. Forebears, descendants. Nothing is more familiar, nothing more ineffable than the emotional prism, the blood knot that constitutes family. This special issue explores the intricacies of family ties and the labyrinthine nature of kinship.
