About The Massachusetts Review:
An independent quarterly of literature, the arts, and public affairs, The Massachusetts Review has deep local roots but a broad appeal, with subscribers spread across the U.S. and abroad. In addition to poems and stories of the highest literary quality by writers both nationally-known and emerging, our pages also regularly include literature in translation, personal witness pieces, lively and incisive social and historical commentary. Ours is a generalist reader who cares deeply for both literature and the wider world.
