Review
“Conjunctions is striking. . . . A rich collection which balances well-known writers with exciting new ones.” —The New York Times Book Review
“Conjunctions offers a showplace for some of the most exciting and demanding writers now at work.” —The Washington Post
“Arguably the most distinguished journal of prose and poetry in America.” —Elle
>“A must read.” —The Village Voice
“One of the very best literary magazines in North America. If you like good reading that’s also provocative and original, naturally you would be reading Conjunctions.” —Joyce Carol Oates
“The last avant-garde literary journal . . . with a wide-bore vision and a still vital role to play in the publishing of younger and unknown writers is, after all, venerable . . . Conjunctions is still the bellwether of non-aligned excellence.” —Martin Earl
“Conjunctions is a major magazine, possibly the last print journal deserving that designation in America.” —Ron Silliman
“One of our most distinctive and valuable literary magazines. The fiction, poetry, criticism, drama, and art is sometimes described as ‘experimental,’ but we would also say innovative, daring, indispensable, and beautiful.” —PEN American Center
“One of the most widely recognized and respected venues for serious poetry, prose, plays, interviews, and criticism.” —Context
