Description

McSweeney's multi-award-winning quarterly returns with 67th issue, pressed inside a brilliant metal cover. A three-time winner and eight-time finalist of the National Magazine Award for fiction, each issue of the quarterly is completely redesigned (there have been hardcovers and paperbacks, an issue with two spines, an issue with a magnetic binding, an issue that looked like a bundle of junk mail, and an issue that looked like a sweaty human head), but always brings you the very best in new literary fiction.

Reviews

"A key barometer of the literary climate."
--The New York Times "An enduring literary presence."
--Chicago Tribune "Ever shape-shifting and ambitious, McSweeney's has redefined what a literary institution can be. Their commitment to publishing strong, strange voices and stories from the periphery has always been an inspiration and I'm always excited to see what they'll do next."
--Catherine Lacey, McSweeney's contributor and author of Pew

Author Bio

McSweeney's Quarterly Concern began in 1998 as a literary journal that published only works rejected by other magazines. That rule was soon abandoned, and since then McSweeney's has attracted some of the finest writers in the world, from George Saunders and Lydia Davis, to Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie and David Foster Wallace. Recent issues have featured work by Tommy Orange, Hanif Abdurraqib, Lisa Taddeo, Mimi Lok, and Lesley Nneka Arimah. At the same time, the journal continues to be a major home for new and unpublished writers; we're committed to publishing exciting fiction regardless of pedigree.
