Praise
“Unsaid has established itself as the most aesthetically distinguished and daring journal since Gordon Lish’s groundbreaking The Quarterly. In fact, Unsaid is in many ways the only true descendant of The Quarterly in its commitment to publishing only that which is entirely unfrivolous and genuinely original.”
—Garielle Lutz, NEA fellow, author of Worsted and I Looked Alive
"Unsaid consistently publishes disarming, demanding, and elusively powerful fiction and poetry that delves deep into places many are afraid to wander, both as readers and writers."
—Electric Literature
"I don't think teaching influences my writing, but it does influence my reading. My students often recommend writers they've come across in publications such as Unsaid."
—Amy Hempel, author, Guggenheim Fellow, recipient of PEN/Malamud Award
“David McLendon taught me more editing a single piece for Unsaid than I learned from most classes.”
—Matt Bell, author of Scrapper
“From the very first story, Unsaid had my attention. There is a breathtaking range of writing. As I read, I would fold the corners of every page that had some really interesting turn of phrase. By the time I reached the end of Unsaid more than half of the book’s pages were folded. I’d also been introduced to new writers and writing styles. Unsaid has been immeasurably eye-opening for me as an editor.”
—Roxane Gay, author of NYT bestselling essay collection, Bad Feminist
