Editorial Focus

Bennington Review aims to contribute distinctive style and substance to the national literary conversation through publishing sharp, unexpected, original poetry and prose from a geographically broad and culturally rich spectrum of prominent, up-and-coming, and new voices. In the spirit of poet Dean Young’s dictum that poets should be “making birds, not birdcages,” the editors are particularly taken with writing that is simultaneously graceful and reckless.
