Don’t know BOMB? We’re pleased to introduce you. A quarterly lit mag, BOMB Magazine was founded in 1981 and features interviews, original writing, and reviews.
Says the journal’s website:
BOMB was named after Wyndham Lewis’s Blast, a 1917 journal edited by artists and writers. Following in this tradition, BOMB’s editors are also all practitioners of the arts. BOMB was launched because its early editors saw a gap between the way art and literature were discussed and understood by those individuals outside the creative arts and those within the disciplines.
