My review of Berkeley Poetry Review’s Spring issue just went up on The Review Review! Earlier this year I sent a request to join the ranks of the literary reviewers on their site and this is the second lit mag they’ve sent me to read and write about. Meaning, not only did it give me motivation to read a new lit mag from cover to cover, but I received it for no cost!

Here’s a snippet from my review:
The poems in Berkeley Poetry Review are shaped to be viewed from a distance and then meant for zooming in, for studying each line break, each enjambment, and each punctuation mark to discover its purpose. The poems place themselves in varying ways upon the page, some scattered, some aligned, some moving, and some still.
