Industry Reviews

# 1: Pan-lingual Gobshite Quarterly, where Paul Krassner meets V©nus Khoury-Ghata, is my

favorite source for Hungarian fiction that reads like a song. In its pages English language poems, short stories, and "reasoned rants" nervously traverse a dark alley, past a gauntlet of hipster Arabs, dangerous Czechs, and Spanish cantoras.  - Chris Dodge, Utne Magazine

# 2: The quality and diversity of authors within Gobshite Quarterly is unrivaled among literary publications originating in the Pacific Northwest. But it is much more than a regional journal. Gobshite's attention and curation, including the best and far-reaching international poets, broadens my horizon issue after issue. It is go-to. - Jeff Sargent, poet/reviewer 

# 3: Now more than ever, Gobshite Quarterly's ambitious, ingenious, & unexpected multilingual publications serve as an antidote to ever more toxic xenophobia. Gobshite Quarterly persistently reminds readers there's a larger world out there. - Madison Smartt Bell 

# 4: I did two books & many more multilingual magazine projects with Gobshite Quarterly. They're linguistic treasures. They're language-discoverers-&-savers. They're language. Languages are bridges entire peoples are able to roll over, from one culture to another. There are no cultures without languages. Gobshite Quarterly embraces them all. - Christoph Keller, winner of the 2020 Alemannic Literary Prize 

# 5: Gobshite Quarterly introduced Croatian writers & translators to the U.S. So much valuable work was written in the immediate aftermath of the Croatian war of independence: documentary, imaginative recounting, warning, horror, continuing daily life, &d Gobshite published it, in a dizzying number of languages, and continues to do so. - Julienne BuÅ¡iÄ, Croatian writer & translator, Zagreb, Croatia
