ABOUT

Yale Review of Books is a literary and cultural publication dedicated to providing thoughtful, accessible book reviews, articles and critical essays for readers seeking substantive engagement with contemporary and classic literature, non-fiction, and ideas. We serve as an intellectual forum that bridges academic rigor with general readership, promoting critical thinking and cultural dialogue.

From 2001 to 2004, Yale Review of Books was a quarterly print publication. It was ran by several students from Yale University and distributed at the campus. The website also published the same content. After the students graduated and moved on, this site continued to publish online book reviews and publications.

This website is not associated with the Yale University other than the fact that some of the writers are from the Yale University.
