Kandel’s essays have been published in multiple journals and anthologies and her poems have appeared twice in Rattle. Her first book, So Many Africas: Six Years in a Zambian Village (Autumn House Press, 2015) won the Autumn House Nonfiction Prize and the Sarton Women’s Literary Award. Kandel currently lives with her husband in Fargo/Moorhead, a few blocks away from the Red River. Kandel also blogs about writing and her recovery from brain injury.
