Modern Review (North American)

The Modern Review was a magazine based in Richmond Hill, Ontario, Canada that styles itself a "North American literary journal".

It is published quarterly by the Parsifal Press Literary Arts Association, a nonprofit organization.

[1] The magazine describes its philosophy this way:[1] The editorial mission of the Modern Review is to dispute literary borders on an international stage, to educate, and to foster both an appreciation and desire for a higher standard in the written arts.

To make no alliances, and cultivate no preference of one class or movement over another, but to act as a point where artistic integrity meets the risk-taking means which will promote its cause with zeal and diligence.

The desired end is sustained access to a relevant literature, one that refuses to oppose tradition to innovation, the personal to the objective.
