About the magazine

Elysium Review is a literary and arts journal founded in 2015 with the aim of fostering a contemplative space for contemporary writing and visual art. Its ethos is rooted in the belief that art and literature should challenge, console, and connect, and it seeks work that demonstrates formal ambition and emotional resonance. The journal publishes poetry, fiction, nonfiction, and visual art, with a particular interest in voices that are underrepresented in mainstream literary culture. Each issue is curated to create a cohesive aesthetic experience, often blending text and image in innovative ways.

Unsolicited submissionsYes

Before submitting, read at least one full issue to understand the journal's aesthetic and thematic interests. Elysium Review values work that is polished, original, and emotionally honest. Simultaneous submissions are accepted, but notify immediately if your work is accepted elsewhere. Include a brief cover letter with your submission, and ensure that visual art submissions are high-resolution and professionally documented. Response times can vary, so patience is appreciated.

Make sure to read our submission guidelines! Your submission should include a cover letter that states how your poems relate to our thematic focuses (pleasure, delight, wonder, and joy). This requirement was added because we received too many submissions that seemed unrelated.
