WHITEFISH, Mont. (Dec. 13, 2007) – The Whitefish Review, a new semi-annual literary journal has announced the publication of its second issue available Dec. 14. The 124-page soft cover book features established and emerging authors and artists with a leaning towards the art and literature of mountain culture.

The second issue features an additional 28 artists and writers ranging from 11 to 65 years old across ten different states. Eighteen of the contributors are from Montana. The journal weaves a diverse mix of narratives interspersed across five non-fiction essays and one interview, six short stories, seven poems, four paintings and drawings, and eight photographs. The cover features a photo by Whitefish photographer Heath Korvola.
