In celebration of its landmark sixtieth anniversary, the MassachuSetts Review presents a collection of the best contemporary and emerging international writers and writers in translation, from MR's last decade. At a time when English-only readers too often know little about the rest of the world, this volume is a classroom in itself. This timely and essential anthology features fiction, essays, and poetry by Mia Couto, Tabish Khair, Menekşe Toprak, Olga Tokarczuk, and Kim Tae-Young, among others.
Jim Hicks is executive editor of the MassachuSetts Review and senior lecturer of comparative literature at the University of MassachuSetts Amherst. He is author of Lessons from Sarajevo: A War Stories Primer and translator of Italian novelist, poet, and essayist Erri De Luca.
Ellen Dore Watson is the author of four books of poems, including her new collection, Dogged Hearts, as well as This Sharpening and Ladder Music, which was the recipient of the New England/New York Award from Alice James Books. Watson is poetry and translation editor for the MassachuSetts Review.
Q. M. Zhang is prose editor for the MassachuSetts Review and associate professor of cultural psychology at Hampshire College. An alumna of the Juniper Summer Writing Institute and a former resident writer at the Vermont Studio Center, she is author of Accomplice to Memory.
