About Us

TriQuarterly is a not-for-profit national literary magazine published three times a year at Northwestern University that features fiction, poetry, literary essays, and graphic art.
Founded in 1958 as a faculty and student magazine, TriQuarterly was reshaped in 1964 as an innovative national publication aimed at a sophisticated and diverse literary readership. The physical aspect of many literary journals today derives from the creation of the TriQuarterly design in 1964.

By publishing a combination of general issues and occasional special issues, such as for Vladimir Nabokov on his seventieth birthday; Prose for Borges; and The Little Magazine in America: A Modern Documentary History, TriQuarterly quickly became one of the most widely admired and important American literary journals.

The New York Times called TriQuarterly “perhaps the preeminent journal for literary fiction” in America, and the Times Literary Supplement (London) has said that TriQuarterly “fulfilled the classic function of the literary magazine in the twentieth century.” Library Journal called TriQuarterly “the premier literary review currently being published,” and Publishers Weekly noted that the twentieth-anniversary issue’s “table of contents is a roster of some of the leading writers of our era.”

As a new millennium begins, TriQuarterly is approaching its fortieth anniversary. Under the direction of Editor Susan Firestone Hahn, the magazine maintains its commitment to presenting the finest of literary and graphic art for discerning readers
