Northwest Review

From the Editor’s Desk

Back in 1957, Robert Paul introduced the first issue of Northwest Review.  His statement was unadorned:

  This is our beginning.  We make no formal statement of policy; we have no manifesto apart from the actual existence and character of Northwest Review, itself.  We feel that we need none. . . . If policy must be stated, let it be simply: awareness.  

Fifty-two years later, on the occasion of the Review’s adoption into the Creative Writing Program—and in a culture of product branding and market identity—the new faculty editors affirmed the simplicity and elegance of a policy of awareness.  For awareness is the first condition of discernment. To this we added a second tenet: transformation.  Transformation speaks to the journal’s vision and to its future.

Northwest Review operates from an expansive place. Proud of our home in the Northwest, we nonetheless aspire to be a literary journal for all points on the compass.
