The Alembic

Read by Anthony Tinaro

What is The Alembic?

We’re thrilled to introduce you to a brand-new chapter in The Alembic’s history. For the first time ever, we’re offering an audio edition of the journal—an exciting new endeavor for 2025. In this edition, you’ll hear every written piece read aloud by Providence College students, bringing a new dimension and life to the written word.

Tonight I’m thinking
that when the moon changes
from a round seashell
to a thin coastline,
it adjusts between
its resting,
and that it’s not
fully gone
but only vanished
from sight, a darkness
we may rest in
before we see the new again.
