Reviews Policy
We are currently not accepting unsolicited reviews, though we do welcome review copies of poetry books. We are especially interested in reviewing first books and small press titles. No matter what we review, our philosophy when it comes to commentary employs the notion that, unlike some contemporary criticism, the reviewed is more significant than the reviewer. In other words, we try to review work deserving of positive press while keeping our comments to 500 words.
