Kenyon Review Reading Series 2020-21
All events sponsored in whole or in part by the
Kenyon Review, the Kenyon College English Department, GLCA New Writers Award, Ohio Arts Council, and the
KR Associates Program.
All of this year’s Kenyon Review Reading Series events are VIRTUAL. See below for links to our scheduled events, and please visit this page again soon as we are building a rich lineup for this fall. You can purchase books written by our virtual reading series authors in our KR Bookshop. We hope you’ll join us.
Although these readings are free and open to the public, we hope you will consider making a donation. With your support, we’ll continue to provide programming that celebrates the most exciting voices in literature from ever more diverse, ever more talented communities of authors.
Editor’s Notes
This issue of the
Kenyon Review breaks my own long-standing rules. It’s an indulgence I’ve granted myself on the way out the door. (I’m actually a kind of ghost editor in these pages, having physically walked out that door at the end of June such are the rhythms of production.)
For twenty-six years (in truth for nearly thirty, since I served as acting editor in 1989–90 and as associate after that), I’ve always been committed to open submissions, to searching diligently for the very best literary writing that has come to us, whether over the transom or via the Internet. In the process we’ve discovered many brilliant new voices and published them alongside some of the most distinguished writers of our generation. This has been our mission and has allowed us to welcome many authors to our pages for the first time.
