Since its founding in 1956 at The University of Tulsa, Nimrod has shared with its readers exciting new writing from around the world.
Nimrod is published twice a year. Each issue features a stimulating selection of poetry, short fiction, and nonfiction, including work in translation. Selections from Nimrod have been included in The Best American Short Stories, Best Stories from the South, New Voices in American Fiction, Best New Poets, Best American Poetry, and many other noted anthologies.
From the very beginning, Nimrod has attracted original work from such renowned writers as W. H. Auden, Mahmud Darwish, Natalie Diaz, Mark Doty, Rita Dove, S. E. Hinton, Sue Monk Kidd, Maxine Kumin, Stanley Kunitz, Ursula K. LeGuin, Denise Levertov, Pablo Neruda, Alicia Ostriker, Linda Pastan, Octavio Paz, Isaac Bashevis Singer, William Stafford, and Mark Strand, among many others.
Nimrod supports and defends the literary tradition of small magazines, spotlighting lesser-known poets and writers and providing foundations for their literary careers. We promote a living literature, recognizing and rewarding contemporary writing of imagination, substance, and skill.
We hope you will join us in our mission as a reader, donor, or submitter—or all three.
