Iowa City’s preeminent literary journal, The Iowa Review, will celebrate 43 years of continuous publication with a reading on Aug. 28 at Prairie Lights Books (15 S. Dubuque St.).
There will be readings from several writers published in the journal, and an open reception at the Café at Prairie Lights immediately afterward.
This annual reading and celebration coincides with the release of the forthcoming fall issue. Founded in 1970, The Iowa Review has published some of the most acclaimed writers of our era from around the world, including William Carlos Williams, Ann Patchett, Samuel Beckett and Jorge Luis Borges, among many others.
