Editorial Focus

Colorado Review’s only commitment is to the publication of serious poetry, fiction, and nonfiction. It does not publish genre fiction nor do they subscribe to a particular literary philosophy or school of poetry or fiction. It is determinedly eclectic and intends to stay that way. Note that the editors read nonfiction year-round.
