Raving Dove's Winter Edition Now Online. Call for Spring Edition.

After a brief hiatus, Raving Dove has returned to the literary scene with a powerful winter 2008/2009 edition.

In this edition, our nonfiction honors 99-year-old William Hammaker, the "Professor of Peace"; it takes us to the streets of Ireland and then back to the U.S., into the reflections of an ex-con. Fiction is a whimsical what if, and poetry presents an inspired salmagundi of sentiments about violence and peace.

Raving Dove's mission is to share thought-provoking poetry, prose, and art that champions human rights and social justice--and opposes physical and psychological violence in all its forms, including war, discrimination against sexual orientation, and every shade of bigotry.

We are now reviewing for our spring edition.

"Raving Dove is like an impressionist painting that you have continuously observed in order to view obscured or distant images or ideas that you may have missed at first glance. Its literary sensibility seems to be one of simple and precisely written elegance..."—Micah Zevin/NewPages
