Call for Submissions: Michigan Quarterly Review

Michigan Quarterly Review --Special Issue: 30 years since the Berlin Wall fell

Deadline: April 15, 2019

Michigan Quarterly Review is announcing a special Issue on the 30th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall entitled: What Does Europe Want Now?

Below is a call for submissions from the guest editor for this issue: poet, translator, and literary scholar Benjamin Paloff:

THE MICHIGAN QUARTERLY REVIEW is seeking submissions for a special issue reflecting critically on the thirty years since the fall of the Berlin Wall and on the current failings and future promises of Europe. We are not interested in nostalgia or celebration. Rather, we want outstanding work in any genre that addresses the dramatic transformations of 1989 as a contemporary issue and that recognizes local, even personal realities as echoes of global social and geopolitical problems.

We are accepting poetry, fiction, essays, and translations. We are also accepting interviews and reviews for MQR Online.

Submit to this special issue and to MQR's general submissions here.
