Publisher’s description: The Saranac Review was born in 2004 out of four writers' vision to open a space for the celebration of many voices including those from Canada. Attempting to act as a source of connection, the journal publishes the work of emerging and established writers from both countries and beyond. Committed to dissolving boundaries of all kinds, the Saranac Review strives to be a textual clearing in which a space is opened for literary cross-pollination. We aim to publish diverse voices, a literal "cluster of stars," an illumination of the Iroquois roots of our namesake, the word, Saranac. We publish work that engages, provokes, and resonates. We have published Jay Parini, Julia Alvarez, Donald Revell, Xu Xi, Jessica Grant, Marilyn Nelson, Lawrence Raab, T. Alan Broughton, Jacob M. Appel, Tom Wayman, Colette Inez, Louise Warren, Brian Campbell, Gregory Pardlo, Myfanwy Collins William Giraldi, and other fine emerging and established writers.
