"Witness,

cover, hurts-not
so

serious as because its best pages contain
a profound and daunting moral gravity."
Greil Marcus

"Not easy, at any given time, to rec
a count of the literary magazines
that this nation has the good luc
to have such a bounty of But
so

new litmag that seems determi
to make of itself something rat
more than a mere additive, a s
palliative. Such an enterprise
is

aims to make a difference
-
and
It
is
loud and angry and serious
like fistfights, and literature, aug
to be."
Lee K. Abbott
"Witness
is one of several excel
new literary and intellectualjou

our sense of the variety and scop
of the imaginative life in ihe Uni

subjects is particularly valuable."
