Whitney Review #6

The Whitney Review of New Writing is expanding literary criticism. Bringing together author interviews, literary essays, and short-format book reviews, it offers an interdisciplinary perspective on the culture of reading and writing.

The sixth issue features conversations with John Keene and Abdu Ali; Judith Thurman and Harry Tafoya; and Francesca Lia Block and James Nulick. Plus essays, poetry, and 70+ reviews by leading voices from the worlds of literature, film, visual art, performance, and design, including A. S. Hamrah, Molly Soda, Journey Streams, Maya Martinez, Geoffrey Mak, Angie Sijun Lou, Alexandra Cunningham Cameron, Bruce Benderson, Brendon Holder, Felix Burrichter, and Mara Mckevitt. Since its founding in 2023, this biannual newsprint journal has earned an unlikely cohort of admirers and partners.

Writing in all forms — from small-press poetry to celebrity memoir to advertising copy — is examined with wit, intelligence, and originality.
