"S" is for South Carolina Review

"S" is for South Carolina Review. The South Carolina Review is a literary miscellany featuring short fiction, poetry, critical essays, interviews, and book reviews. Founded at Furman University in 1968, the Review, was edited and published there until 1973, when it moved to Clemson University under the leadership of Richard J. Calhoun, who became editor. Special issues dedicated to single authors represent the publication’s efforts to promote the exchange of ideas and discoveries. For more than three decades the South Carolina Review had maintained its role as a vehicle for fiction writers and poets launching their careers, for critics and scholars desiring to share their insights and discoveries, and for reviewers intent on assessing the achievements and discoveries of creative writers and outspoken scholars. Although there have been issues devoted to national and international literature, the focus of the South Carolina Review remains southern and American literature.
