Fugue (/fjuːɡ/ fewg) is an American literary magazine based out of the University of Idaho, located in Moscow, Idaho.[1] The journal was founded in 1990[2] under the editorship of J. C. Hendee.[1]
Publishing biannually, it curates works of fiction, essays, poetry, plays, interviews, and visual-text hybrids. This includes a physical copy (summer-fall) and a digital issue (winter-spring).
In addition to publishing works by established authors, Fugue also accepts work from up-and-coming writers. The journal hosts the Palouse Literary Festival and hosts an annual competition in both poetry and prose.
Notably, in 2018, Fugue published four rediscovered poems and an essay by Anne Sexton, written between 1958 and 1959, originally published in The Christian Science Monitor.
