About

The inaugural issue sold for fifty cents and included native Oregonian Ken Kesey’s first publication, a short story called “The First Sunday in September.” In its sixty-three year history, Northwest Review has published multiple winners of the Pulitzer-Prize, the National Book Award, the Booker Prize, and the National Book Critics Circle Award.
