Editor, Kirstin Hotelling Zona. The Spoon River Poetry Review (SRPR) is published twice a year by the Spoon River Poetry Association. Each issue contains contemporary poetry in English from the U.S. and around the world in English translation; features an Illinois poets' (a poet who has an Illinois connection) chapbook length selection of poems followed by a substantial interview; and a long theoretically informed review essay of contemporary poetry. Each year, the winning poem, runners-up, and honorable mentions of the Editors' Prize contest are included in the summer/fall issue. Recent judges of the contest have been C. S. Giscombe, Jeanne Marie Beaumont, and Michelle Boisseau. SRPR publishes high-quality poems in any style that are as intellectually and emotionally ambitious as they are attentive to technique. Recent and forthcoming contributors to SRPR include Joshua Corey, Arielle Greenberg Bywater, Edward Hirsch, Jamaal May, Danielle Pafunda, Kristin Prevallet, and Andrew Shelling. Poet's Market has named SRPR "one of the best reads in the poetry publishing world." |
