MIDDLEBURY NEW ENGLAND REVIEW VOLUME 21/2020/NUMBER 2
Details
New England Review gives readers a vital snapshot of the literary moment, four times a year, in its richness, complexity, and diversity. They publish poetry and fiction in a variety of forms and styles -- from the formally adventurous to the startlingly traditional -- alongside a range of nonfiction, including personal essays, cultural revaluations, travelogues, and more. Translations are also a regular part of the mix, and once a year they highlight writing from another part of the world in a portfolio of international writing. While each piece in the magazine can be read and appreciated on its own, the issue as a whole is assembled with an eye to flow and thematic coherence or dissonance, creating a sum greater than its parts.
