Rebecca Foust is the 2014 Dartmouth Poet in Residence at the Frost Place. Her books include All That Gorgeous Pitiless Song, (2008 Many Mountains Moving Book Prize) and God, Seed (2010 Foreword Book of the Year Award), and two chapbooks (Robert Phillips Prizes in 2008 and 2009). Foust received an MFA from Warren Wilson College in 2010. Recent poems are in Hudson Review, Massachusetts Review, Sewanee Review, Southern Indiana Review, Zyzzyva, and elsewhere and fiction, essays and book reviews are in American Book Review, Chautauqua, The Rumpus, Poetry Flash, Tikkun Daily and other journals.

The Rumpus publishes original fiction, poetry, literary humor writing, comics, essays, book reviews, and interviews with authors and artists of all kinds. Our mostly volunteer-run magazine strives to be a platform for risk-taking voices and writing that might not find a home elsewhere. We lift up new voices alongside those of more established writers our readers may already know and love. We want to bring new perspectives into the conversation that will make us all look deeper.

We believe that literature builds community—and if reading The Rumpus makes you feel more connected, please show your support! Get your Rumpus merch in our online store. Subscribe to receive Letters in the Mail from authors or join us by becoming a monthly or yearly Member.
