The Kenyon Review, founded in 1939 at Kenyon College, Gambier, Ohio, is another prestigious magazine that has gone through the transformation from pure love of the arts to a combination of high quality art and business-like structure. The reading period for 2010-11 runs from September 15, 2010 through January 15, 2011. They look for poetry, fiction, non-fiction, and reviews. As part of the financial modernization of the magazine, they now have a web site, blog, ability to receive submissions on-line (an account must be open), and a host of other initiatives, like contests, festivals, a bourgeoning blog and others.
As with any magazine you wish to contribute to, it is highly recommended that you buy a subscription or one issue, peruse the magazine at your favorite book store, and get familiarized with the type of work they publish. TKR has seen in its pages poets like Allen Tate, Robert Penn Warren, and Robert Lowell. Consult the guidelines during the reading period. The current issue is for Winter 2010 and features contributions by Evelina Zuni Lucero, Jorge Antonio Vallejos, Mark Turcotte, Eric Gansworth and many others.
