The Desert Nights, Rising Stars

Sonora Review is among the oldest student-run literary journals in the country, and has been devoted since its founding in 1980 to offering a venue for exciting new and emerging authors, as well as prominent southwestern writers and artists. In previous issues we have featured work by Aimee Bender, Joy Harjo, and Maggie Nelson, and our editors have included Antonya Nelson, Richard Russo, and David Foster Wallace. Work originally printed in Sonora Review has appeared in Best of the West and Best American Poetry, and has won O. Henry Awards and Pushcart Prizes.
