Description: Milkweed Chronicle : The Formative Years of a Literary Nonprofit Press, Paperback by Buchwald, Emilie, ISBN 163955047X, ISBN-13 9781639550470, Brand New, Free shipping in the US The formative days of Milkweed Editions - a story told by its cofounder.
In the 1970s and '80s, as major New York publishing houses were consolidating and growing ever larger, small nonprofit presses and journals emerged. With a variety of missions—literary, social, political—these small publishers shared a desire to prioritize quality over quantity. One was Milkweed Chronicle, the literary and visual arts journal launched in 1980 by writer Emilie Buchwald and artist . Scholes in Minneapolis—a city experiencing significant growth in the arts—that would become Milkweed Editions.
A Milkweed Chronicle is the first-person account by cofounder Emilie Buchwald of how the journal morphed into an award-winning nonprofit literary press. It is the story of writers who established Milkweed’s reputation for excellence in poetry, fiction, and nonfiction—and especially, by the mid-1990s, in books about the natural world. And it is also the story of the editors and staff who established and first achieved Milkweed’s mission of publishing transformative literature.
