About the Magazine
Founded in 2020 | United States
Among its meanings, an annulet is chiefly a little ring. As a biannual literary magazine, Annulet seeks to publish poetry that tracks its material nature, whether in language or in form, and prose whose sentences stretch toward, or must be parsed as or with, poetics. We like to read texts that live in between these states (especially for prose) as well as poems keening closely with their form. Equally, Annulet seeks dynamic literary criticism. We introduce the annulet, or a short form close read, as our form of critique. Scholarly at heart and approachable in practice, these annulets should consider: one poem, or one excerptable prose section. Consider it the cherry of an article, and more fun. Longer form criticism, or comparatives, should consider more than one thing in conjunction with each other. Along with critical and literary essays, comment on topics in poetics, essays on reading and place, and reviews are also considered—please find a list of titles of interest included with our submissions information.
