The imprint was formed in 2016 by then FSG publisher and president Jonathan Galassi to publish experimental works. Under the direction of Sean McDonald, MCD published a range of bestselling and award-winning fiction and nonfiction titles.
Damn this sucks. MCD was a bastion of great modern writing and a real inspiration for how I’ve approached Foofaraw.
Glad to see that “Space & Time” is sticking around.
It's a storied publication and well worth a trip to the archive. The switch to monthly keeps things fresh, though theme calls are only as interesting as the tenders who field them.
Luckily, Angela Yuriko Smith is a gem of an editor.
I've not been in this pub, but I've submitted a couple of times. No one likes a “close but no cigar” rejection. In fact, those replies are often more infuriating than form letters — think “silver medal paradox,” though the bronze winner part isn't as applicable — but Smith has, at least in my experience, offered encouragement and highlighted poems worth pitching elsewhere.
Anyway, keep an eye out for this newest incarnation of “Space & Time.”
Tons of awesome looking and sounding books here. Support small presses this holiday season! The dream is for a Foofaraw book to one day be featured on a list like this.
