Was New American Review the best literary magazine ever? - Slate Magazine

Was New American Review the best literary magazine ever? - Slate Magazine:

"I dare you to name a better one."

So do I. And a regular contributor was M. F. Beal, one of the great short story writers to come out of Oregon. She wrote a novel, Amazon One, long out of print. She lived in Seal Rock for years and may still. She, her husband at the time David Shetzline, and myself were all at the U of O at the same time, getting grad degrees in writing (we already had better publications than some of our professors!). Beal and Shetzline both need to be rediscovered for their fine literary work.
