Editorial Focus
The Hole in the Head Review is a vibrant online journal of poetry and art that is attracting an international audience and submissions from new and established poets. One reader described them as such: “I found it terrifically gratifying: all the poems sassy, demotic, smart, gritty, crackling with energy. I thought: I want to be with them.” They take editorial direction from Emily Dickinson: “If I feel physically as if the top of my head were taken off, I know that it is poetry.”
