Source of Lit - The Collagist

Dzanc Books is pleased to announce the publication of its newest venture: The Collagist, an online literary journal whose debut issue can be read immediately at www.thecollagist.com.  

 

The Collagist is edited by Matt Bell with Matthew Olzmann as Poetry Editor.  The debut issue includes fiction by Chris Bachelder, Kevin Wilson, Kim Chinquee, Matthew Salesses, and Gordon Lish, plus an excerpt from Laird Hunt's forthcoming novel Ray of the Star. Charles Jensen, Oliver de la Paz, and Christina Kallery each contribute several new poems, and Ander Monson and David McLendon offer  unique takes on the personal essay. The Collagist's first book review section includes coverage of Terry Galloway's Mean Little Deaf Queer, Michal Ajvaz's The Other City, and Brian Evenson's Fugue State, as well as a video review of Jonathan Baumbach's You, or the Invention of Memory.

This issue will also extend onto their blog, which will feature interviews with contributors and audio and video readings of work found in the issue, all of which will also be available as a podcast through iTunes. The blog can be found at www.thecollagist.com/wordpress/.
