About the Millions

Welcome to The Millions, an online publication devoted to books, arts, and culture.

Founded by C. Max Magee in 2003, The Millions began as part of the early wave of “book blogs” but soon evolved into a thriving online magazine. We publish reviews, essays, and interviews, as well as our biannual Great Book Previews and annual Year in Reading series. At a time when literary publications and discourse are in peril, The Millions remains committed to publishing thoughtful and thought-provoking writing about books, arts, and culture in its many guises.
