Canadian magazines trade coasts


From my review of the latest Malahat, up today at New Pages.“Two outstanding Canadian literary journals have collaborated on separate issues consisting of work from each other’s patch. This issue of Malahat, based in British Columbia (B.C.), features “Essential East Coast Writing” in collaboration with Fiddlehead, published in New Brunswick. Alternately, Fiddlehead published a West Coast issue. . . .The result, at least by reading the Mahalat half, is a celebration of artistic vibrancy.”
