Book Synopsis

Review Quotes

Every issue of A Public Space juxtaposes finely wrought, carefully edited pieces, putting them in dynamic conversation with one another. An expertly assembled mix of contributors includes emerging talents as well as writers rediscovered through a kind of archival derring-do. [A Public Space] stands as a paradigm of what literary magazines can be: a gorgeously curated collection we experience as a cabinet of wonders.
--Whiting Literary Magazine Prize

A Public Space is a venue for writers both preceded and unpreceded by reputation... I enjoy reading A Public Space because it is finite, because it is excellent, and because it is miscellaneously excellent...[and] because of its serious contributions to the ineffably worthy cause of the imagination.
--Amy Leach

A Public Space notices the world--in all of its particulars, their odd collection--and delivers this world to us... It's a magazine committed to discovery: to discovering new voices, new places, new layers of feeling and experience.
--Leslie Jamison
