The American Poetry Review defines itself as having "
eclectic editing, newsprint-
tabloid format, and a
circulation of 20,000." Considered one of the greatest bastions of poetry the "APR reaches a worldwide audience six times a year with the poetry and prose of living
modern masters, of new poets and critics just arriving on the
scene, and of a diverse range of
cultures and
ethnic groups." It has been around for 28 years. They brag that "the
magazine has helped to make poetry a more
public art form without compromising the art of poetry."

poets feel like they've really "made it" when they get published in the
journal. It is possible to achieve this high honor if you act like
Poetry is a business.
