Mission Statement

Chaski Review is a literary journal dedicated to voices across borders, generations, and languages. Inspired by the chaskis—messengers of the Andean world—we carry stories that challenge, illuminate, and connect.

We publish work that embodies movement—whether linguistic, geographic, or artistic—amplifying writers and translators who engage with the uncomfortable, hybridity, displacement, and cultural dialogue. We believe in literature as an act of transmission, a means of resistance, and a site of transformation.

Rooted in the spirit of exchange, Chaski Review welcomes experimental forms, multilingual play, and perspectives that unsettle the status quo. We seek to cultivate a space where voices that are often overlooked—emerging, underrepresented, and transnational—can find readers who will carry their words forward.
