Descriptive Summary Title: The Review of Contemporary Fiction/Dalkey Archive Press : records, Date (inclusive): 1980-1990 Collection number: M0507 Collector: John O'Brien Extent: 30 linear ft. Repository: Stanford University. Libraries. Dept. of Special Collections and University Archives. Abstract: John O'Brien founded The Review of Contemporary Fiction (RCF) in 1980 and established the Dalkey Archive Press three years later. Since its inaugural Spring 1981 issue, RCF has appeared with exact regularity three times a year. Each number is devoted to one or two contemporary figures, predominantly American and British but also some European writers as well. The contents of a typical number include original work by the writer featured, an interview with him or her, a memoir or other biographical reminiscence by literary colleagues, and several extended critical articles. The Dalkey Archive Press began as a modest adjunct to RCF, issuing reprints of books by writers featured in the journal, or associated with those writers. Then in 1986, O'Brien began issuing original works. Language: English. Access Gilbert Sorrentino material is partially restricted. Stanford holds no copyright to the material in the collection, only physical rights. Publication Rights Property rights reside with the repository.
