Fiction Magazine
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Fiction is a popular magazine of international imaginative writing.
It was founded in 1972 by Mark Jay Mirsky, Donald Barthelme, and Max Frisch. Since then it has been published out of the City College of New York.
In its early years, Fiction was published in a tabloid format and featured highly experimental and daring work by such writers as John Barth, Italo Calvino, Ronald Sukenick, Steve Katz, Russell Banks, Samuel Beckett and J.G. Ballard. It later took the format of a more traditional paperback literary magazine. Though the magazine declares it only publishes fiction, as its name implies, it has recently featured excerpts from Robert Musil's diaries and letters.
