Overview

The March-April 2025 issue. PN Review 282 is about renewal, finding and re-finding resources – in translation, in the hymn tradition, in the classics; and it is about the ways literature at large and poetry in particular come to terms with historical events and crises in the present world. It also rehears and retells our formative years, discovering how they prefigure and are corrected by the present.
