We live in an age where to speak may not always be wise. Big Brother is watching you as you call and as you write. So why not write something that really stirs up ideas? The enemy for most Americans, the one thing that makes our lives sordid and uneventful, is the mind numbing life we all live. If our mind is too numb because we cannot turn off electronic stimulus long enough to think, then where will good writing come from?

The Los Angeles Review is the voice of Los Angeles, and the voice of the nation. We will not have one editor who chooses work based on their idiosyncratic tastes, but instead will bring in a variety of editors for each issue. This year’s editors are focusing on Language, Silence and Oppression.

We dedicate this first issue of The Los Angeles Review to the late Dr. Benjamin Saltman who had voice, energy and an alive intellect. We invite you to submit critical essays, poetry and fiction to the editors listed above, and we thank you for being part of The Los Angeles Review.

 

Submission Guidelines:
Issue No. 1 is scheduled to be released January 2004. Submissions of fiction, poetry, critical reviews, essays and publications for review will be accepted from March 1 to August 31. Include SASE for response only; manuscripts will not be returned.
