“The Georgia Review is the literary-cultural journal published out of the University of Georgia since 1947. While it began with a regional commitment, its scope has grown to include readers and writers throughout the U.S. and the world who are brought together through the print journal as well as live programming. Convinced that communities thrive when built on dialogue that honors the difference between any two interlocutors, we publish imaginative work that challenges us to reconsider any line, distinction, or thought in danger of becoming too rigid or neat so that our readers can continue the conversations in their own lives.” Quarterly. Buys First N.A. Rights; all other rights revert back to the author at publication, but we offer formal, written reassignments upon request. Reprints should give credit to the original publication of The Georgia Review. No reprints. Guidelines online .
