ABOUT THIS SITE. The New England Review of Books was launched on the summer solstice in 2016. Posts listed under each of our three content categories (REVIEWS AND CRITICISM, EXCERPTS, FEATURES AND INTERVIEWS, and NEW BOOKS AND LITERARY NEWS) may link to content created by and hosted by this website, or to content residing on the sites of other publications. We draw upon sources current and historical. We cannot anticipate when outlinked material may cease to be available at its original location; let us know if you discover any links that have become obsolete so that we can update our archives. The oak tree device used as our logo is taken from a silver shilling made ca. 1667–ca. 1682 by John Hull (1624–1683) and Robert Sanderson Sr. (ca. 1608–1693), mint masters of the Massachusetts Bay Colony. The coin now resides in the permanent collection of the MMOA. The design and editorial scheme for this homepage (like that of our sister site, Secular Age) are inspired by those of Arts & Letters Daily, an invaluable site founded by Denis Dutton in 1998 and now published by The Chronicle of Higher Education. Our motto changes monthly, in reflection of the reality that nothing gold can stay. Click here to see a list of our month-by-month motto selection, from our launch to the present time. Although our update schedule varies, we try to post new content every weekday. If you’d like to recommend a book review, literary interview, essay, or news item to our attention, or if you’d like to pitch a piece, let us know: editors@nerobooks.org. Publishers interested in sending review copies of new or forthcoming titles may mail them c/o Pen & Anvil, 139 Mt. Vernon Street, Fitchburg Mass. 01420. NERObooks is edited by Zachary Bos, with the ongoing assistance of Contributing Editors Jenna Bos, Cat Dossett, Jonathan Han, Cassandra Jones and Paul Rowe. Contributions from others are credited whenever possible. Special thanks should be paid to the writers and editors of those journals and organizations we are in most frequent contact with, including the Boston Poetry Union, Clarion, and the Fellows and BookLab of Bonfire Press. We are not affiliated with New England Review, though we do celebrate their work.
