Publisher’s description: The Malahat Review, established in 1967, is among Canada’s leading literary journals. Published quarterly, it features contemporary Canadian and international works of poetry and fiction as well as reviews of recently published Canadian poetry, fiction and literary non-fiction. On occasion it also publishes interviews, essays and issues on a single theme or author, such as the forthcoming Robin Skelton issue in the fall of 2007.

The Malahat Review is dedicated to excellence in writing. Its aim is to discover the most promising of the new writers and to publish their work alongside the best established writers, to present work accurately and attractively to readers, and to increase awareness of Canadian writing in general through perceptive critical comment. The magazine sponsors a Long Poem Contest and a Novella Contest, held in alternating years, as well as The Far Horizons contest (poetry and fiction in alternating years) for emerging writers. Our first Creative Non-Fiction contest will be held in 2007. Please see our website for details on all contests and for general submission guidelines.
