Begun in 1915 and located on the campus of Southern Methodist University, SWR is the third oldest, continuously published literary quarterly in the United States. We try to discover works by new writers and publish them beside those of more established authors. Selections from SWR have been reprinted in volumes of Prize Stories: The O. Henry Prize Stories, Best American Short Stories, Best American Essays, Best American Poetry, New Stories from the South, and elsewhere.

Southwest Review is proud to be the recipient of a grant from the National Endowment for the Arts.
