Publisher's Description: "Black Warrior Review does everything right. They consistently publish great fiction and poetry while doing things differently and standing out from the crowd ... The current issue is excellent from start to finish ... One of the best magazines around." (NewPages.com review).
Since 1974, Black Warrior Review has published the freshest voices in literature, from established and emerging talents alike. Each issue presents high quality poetry, fiction, and nonfiction, including a chapbook by a nationally recognized poet. In addition, we've recently added comics and full-color art inserts to our repertoire. Black Warrior Review counts among its contributors Pulitzer Prize Winners, National Book Award Winners, and Poet Laureates. Stories and poems from BWR have been reprinted in Puschart Prize series, Best American Short Stories, Best American Poetry, New Stories from the South, and other anthologies. In our 35 year history, we've published work by John Ashbery, Rita Dove, Marvin Bell, Annie Dillard, Charles Simic, James Tate, and Andre Dubus. Recent contributors include Mary Jo Bang, Steve Davenport, Brian Evenson, Terrance Hayes, Dinty W. Moore, D.A. Powell, Tomaz Salamun, Steve Tomasula, Joshua Marie Wilkinson, and Joy Williams.
Black Warrior Review is published by students in The University of Alabama's MFA Program in Creative Writing. We receive support from The University of Alabama and from individual donors around the country.
