A poetry journal open to a wider range of philosophical interests than any
other, Fulcrum is doing as much to advance philosophy as it is to advance
poetry.
   --Peter Hare, Editor, Transactions of the C. S. Peirce Society: A
Quarterly Journal in American Philosophy

One of the liveliest, most challenging poetry journals now on the market,
Fulcrum is notable for its non-sectarianism, its free-wheeling, wide-ranging
presentation of different poetries, candid interviews, and unusual critical
prose.
   --Marjorie Perloff

Fulcrum is quite simply the most exciting literary magazine I know of--it's
got the largest scope of any journal, and room for the most depth. In an age
of jaded readers, Fulcrum gives joyous illumination. Each issue is a
treasure.
   --Don Share, Poetry Editor, Harvard Review, and Curator, G. E. Woodberry
Poetry Room, Harvard University

>From out of nowhere, Fulcrum has in only a few years established itself as a
must-read journal, a unique annual of literary and intellectual substance
positioned on the cutting edge of culture.
   --Billy Collins, US Poet Laureate (2002-3)
