About The Reader

The Reader was a Liverpool-based literary magazine published quarterly by The Reader Organisation. The magazine was founded in 1997 by Sarah Coley, Jane Davis, and Angela Macmillan with a grant from the University of Liverpool's School of English. It operated as part of the University of Liverpool until 2008 when the parent organisation became an independent charitable body. The Reader magazine was edited by Philip Davis, author, biographer, and Professor of English at the University of Liverpool. The Deputy Editor was Sarah Coley. The magazine was stopped in February 2023.
