Description: Midstream begins its second year of quarterly publication with this first issue in 2010. We continue to welcome submission of manuscripts that deal with Jewish life and culture worldwide, past and present, with particular emphasis on contemporary Jewish affairs, political, social, and cultural, in America and in Israel. We trust that our four issues in 2010 will maintain Midstream's reputation as a leading American Jewish Zionist intellectual journal. Midstream publishes many articles, at least one short story (fiction), and from three to ten poems per issue. Articles normally run from 2,000 to 4,000 words and fiction from 2,000 to 5,000 words. We have, on occasion, published longer articles, but writers should try to adhere to our stated limits. Poems are generally short, not more than twenty to thirty lines (counting line-spaces between stanzas), since they are used as fillers on the final page of an article. Here, too, we sometimes manage a longer poem printed in two columns if all the lines are very short. But poets should not count on this rarity. Book reviews on current titles run from 1,000 to 2,000 words; review essays that are more extensive in reach and depth from 2,000 to 4,000 words. Writers of unsolicited articles, memoirs, short stories, and poems need not contact the editor before submission, but it is advisable that book-reviewers send an e-mail description of the book they want to review and a note detailing their expertise in the field, since the editor normally chooses such titles and assigns reviewers. Midstream does not normally publish very short reviews or articles of less than 1,000 words.
