Marina Warner
Marina Warner, the British author who is a Consulting Editor for Interlitq, and who contributed prose to Issue 4 of Interlitq, has been cited in “Things get curiouser and curiouser at the Turner Contemporary” (Brian Dillon, The Guardian, 18.05.13): “Warner has been an essential adviser for this exhibition. In an essay for the catalogue, she points out that despite the reality and the fantasy of the avid male curioso and collector, curiosity itself has long been considered a female vice: the besetting sin of tattletales, gossips and domestic spies. There’s an example of the last in the show: the listening servant in Nicolaes Maes’s 1655 painting An Eavesdropper with a Woman Scolding, which suggests that the whole ordered space of the Dutch interior is a machine for scrutinising the secret lives of others.”

Lydia Davis
Meena Alexander, the U.S. poet who is a Consulting Editor for Interlitq and a contributor to Issue 4 of Interlitq, and Lydia Davis, the U.S. author who contributed fiction to Issue 1 of Interlitq, have been cited in “Marcel Proust’s Guide to Infinity” (John Hennessy, Huff Post, 03.04.13): ”The fact of Proust’s poems will be news to many, the number and quality of them yet another surprise. Astonishing to virtually all of us, though, comes the revelation that Proust spent much of his life trying to decide whether he was a poet or a prose writer. Augenbraum and his team of accomplished contributors, including Meena Alexander, Lydia Davis, Richard Howard, Deborah Treisman, and Rosanna Warren (who present us with translations of many poems that have never before been published in any language), prove that he was both.”
