Split Lip Magazine is interested in reviews and interviews from recently released (within the last nine months) or forthcoming literary collections. We will not consider submissions written by a friend or family member of the reviewer/interviewer. If you've received a rejection from us, please do not resend the same work; we will not reconsider it. We will not consider any work that is not a review or interview. One submission (query or pre-written draft) at a time, please. We take queries/pitches on spec, and if we accept a query/pitch from you, we can try to get a copy of the book! Please also note that we don’t keep a list of books we’re interested in or a stable of writers on hand for reviews/interviews. If you know someone who’d like to cover your collection, have them submit to us!

Whose parents are immigrants. Art that’s lowbrow. Pop-surreal. Hyperreal. Abstract. Art that reminds us of our humanity.
