THE ACENTOS REVIEW

 

November 2011

In this issue of The Acentos Review, writers and an artist open their arms out to us all, calling us into their worlds.  It is a sacred exchange, transformative as the act of naming.  Within these vibrant offerings, bodies twist like trees on a windy night and youth dance with temptation and the illusive escape.  They explore what it means to be loved over distance.  We explore what it means to love.  Welcome. 





SPECIAL ISSUE

JANUS 2012:  Visionaries

In this issue, The Acentos Review calls art, poetry, fiction, nonfiction, interviews and reviews that pay homage to the Latina and Latino elders of our communities.  Whether artists and writers themselves or pillars of strength and influence, we want to know about them.  Imagine an interview with Sandra María Esteves or Lorna Dee Cervantes and make it happen.  Send the portrait of your grandfather at the house he built.  Let us take a moment to acknowledge the bones that support our passage.  Let us be mindful of our own place in what is to come. 



The Acentos Review publishes poetry, fiction, memoir, interviews, translations, and artwork by emerging and established Latino/a writers and artists four times a year.


Please see the submission guidelines for more information.  The submission period for the next issue of poetry, fiction, nonfiction, reviews, essays and art extends until April 1, 2011.
