About Me |
|
| A New York City-based independent literary magazine and book publisher founded in 1990, Open City publishes fiction, essays, poetry, and art. The editors are Thomas Beller and Joanna Yas ."Open City is, simply and supremely, the best American magazine there is. It is, like toilet tissue and the Bible, a paper product that belongs in every home." — Nick Tosches"Open City reminds me of what I crave from magazines: surprise, humor, nerve, a sense of collective imagination that takes in the totality of the enterprise and is reflected in each contribution so that the thing is more than the sum of its parts."— Luc Sante"Open City is as essential as oxygen to the cultural and literary lifeblood of the new century."— Catherine Bowman"Open City showcases the literature of tomorrow today."— Los Angeles Times"A range of style and voices, both raw and cooked—ranging from highly slick and intellectual to twisted and intellectual."— New York Times |
