Founded in Paris by Harold L. Humes, Peter Matthiessen, and George Plimpton in 1953, The Paris Review began with a simple editorial mission: "Dear reader," William Stryon wrote in a letter in the inaugural issue, "The Paris Review hopes to emphasize creative work - fiction and poetry - not to the exclusion of criticism, but with the aim in mind of merely removing criticism from the dominating place it holds in most literary magazines and putting pretty much where it belongs, i.e. somewhere near the back of the book. I think the Paris Review should welcome these people its pages: the good writers and good poets, the non -drumbeaters and non axe-grinders. So long as they're good." To this day, the Paris Review publishes some of the most exciting contemporary writers and poets.
