Since its first publication in 1996, Otherland has been widely known as a magazine devoted to the publication of quality poetry and fiction throughout the Chinese speaking and writing world. In 2000, the magazine has experienced a major shift from a mono-language one to a bilingual one, bringing it closer to an English-speaking and writing world. It has been reviewed in the Age (15/7/00) and Australian Book Review (September, 2000) and has merited a mention in Cambridge Companion to Australian Literature published in 2000 by Cambridge University Press.
