RHINO *Graphic* Reviews
RHINO Reviews is pleased to present its first Graphic Issue, guest-edited and curated by RHINO associate editor, poet, and graphic poet/artist, Naoko Fujimoto.
"For this issue, I asked each reviewer to explore a book of their choice and express their comments in both words and images, pushing the boundaries and constraints of the traditional book review. Each of these experimental pieces proves that even the book review can hold a physical space in which image, text, thought, and feeling harmonizes to create meaning. I invite our readers to inhabit these spaces in hopes that they, too, might be inspired to incorporate and make sense of these emotionally charged times in their own private creative places."

RHINO Poetry 2020
Given the extraordinary challenges of our time, and to celebrate the spring release of our beautiful new 2020 issue, we have set aside as many of our new RHINOs as we can to release into the wild for only $7.00, including free shipping (for U.S. customers).
Because we believe poetry can be a source of comfort, company, solace, and helpful provocation, we want to bring to as many people as possible the work of Mary Jo Bang, Luisa Caycedo-Kimura, Kabel Mishka Ligot, Chloe Martinez, Natasha Saje, Maureen Seaton, Mark Wagenaar, and so many others. This issue also features eight poems in translation, as well as original graphics by RHINO editor Naoko Fujimoto.
