Anyone looking for a venue to publish work in the USA should consider a brand new magazine called Fence. I just warned the editor that I would post this, and she seemed happy at the prospect. It is very well produced, glossy (mmm), and is--what it promised to be--rather eclectic. The first issue has poets including Tomaz Salamun, Paul Muldoon, Rae Armantrout, Anne Carson, Fanny Howe, Gerald Stern, Norman Dubie, Heather McHugh, Weldon Kees, and a fair bunch of younger less published poets. It ranges, but doesn't seem to have taken anything just for the sake of a name. There is plenty of room for innovative work. It is actually a pleasure not to be able to guess what the next poem in a magazine will be like. Fence 14 5th Avenue, 1A NYC, NY 10011 Go on. You can say I sent you...
