About “Close Reading”

Close Reading is the art of paying attention to the ways that literary form and meaning interact. In our politicized era, when craft and vision have often been replaced by propaganda, the art of close reading reminds us that great literature deepens our respect for mystery and the divided nature of the human heart — and in so doing offers us hope for healing and reconciliation. Sponsored by Slant Books, this blog will present reflections on the state of arts and letters in our time as well as interviews with some of the most gifted writers at work today.

To submit your writing to Close Reading, send posts of 800-1200 words to closereading@slantbooks.com.
