Hello you beautiful, beautiful Minetta supporters, may we present our glorious Fall 2013 issue of The Minetta Review: A Journey!
Click the image above to flip through the issue…on Issuu!
I’d like to express the utmost gratitude to my collaborators, our Treasurer Amanda Sanker, Secretary Eshani Agrawal, Poetry Editor Claudia Sbuttoni and Prose Editor Sara Heegaard. I’d also like to thank the members of our increasingly large publication staff who helped orchestrate this installment, as well as the peaceful folk who inhabit our publication lab and kept us company throughout the triple digits of hours spent crafting. It has been an outstanding semester by any standard, and I had an amazing experience, learned a lot. I keep touting this Fall issue as a “literary and arts adventure” and hope you find that term accurate.
As per usual, please check back on our page for updates on the Spring 2014 issue, and artists and writers of all shapes and sizes: you have always been the lungs of this literary publication. Kindly submit your works to us for review–we take it all, from sonnets to mud sculptures.
I hope you enjoy this issue as much as we enjoy your support (boundlessly)!
Katherine Holotko

Can’t find my story on your website. Website highly confusing.
how are you supposed to find a story or poem or anything in this “magazine”? No table of contents, no links to story or author or anything
at all
nobody has bothered to reply to this, indicating they’re just as confused by their magazine as the readers — a literary “magazine” run by illiterate geeks
