Six Seasons is a Bangladeshi-Indian Subcontinental, international periodical devoted exclusively to arts and letters. Earlier Bangladeshi ventures like New Values in the 1950s, and Form: A Magazine of the Arts in the 1980s, generated much interest, but folded mainly because the tasks of gathering material, editing and publishing at the same time proved difficult to sustain for the individuals who launched them. Our present effort will be to pick up the pieces where other left off. The title — Six Seasons Review — for this literary journal derives from the subcontinental convention of dividing the year into six seasons: Summer-Grishma (April-June), Monsoon-Barsha (June-August), Autumn-Sharat (August-October), late Autumn-Hemanta (October-December), Winter-Sheeth (December-February), and, Spring-Bashanta (February-April). The only criterion for accepting submissions from contributors is quality writing — in English and in English translations — poetry, fiction, non-fiction, drama, belles lettres, interviews, essays on literatures, and other arts. The success of Six Seasons Review is entirely dependent on the readers. We hope what we publish will be read with pleasure through all six seasons.
