Everything about The Reader Magazine totally explained
The Reader is a Liverpool-based
literary magazine published quarterly by
The Reader Organisation. The magazine was founded in
1997 by Sarah Coley,
Jane Davis, and Angela Macmillan with a grant from the University of Liverpool's School of English. It operated as part of the
University of Liverpool until 2008 when the parent organisation became an independent charitable body.
The Reader magazine is currently edited by
Philip Davis, author, biographer, and Professor of English at the
University of Liverpool. The Deputy Editor is Sarah Coley.
The magazine features original
poetry and short
fiction, essays, interviews and recommendations with an emphasis on the enjoyment of reading good quality writing. Issues are based loosely around a given theme, with letters, a crossword and the famously tricky 'Buck's Quiz' making up the last section. Since taking over the editorship from his wife in 2007
Philip Davis has overseen a successful redesign and relaunch and the magazine now includes a small amount of photography. The magazine has managed to attract many high-profile contributors over the years, including
A. S. Byatt,
Howard Jacobson,
Seamus Heaney,
Will Self,
Graham Swift,
John Kinsella,
Les Murray,
John Carey,
Bel Mooney and
Jonathan Bate.
As well as the magazine,
The Reader Organisation promotes live literature and
outreach events and educational community-based projects such as
Get Into Reading
, promoting and researching the therapeutic value of reading. In 2008 it spun off from the
University of Liverpool as an independent charitable organisation with
Blake Morrison as its Chair and
Jane Davis as director.
