Locus Solus I

Locus Solus was an American journal of experimental poetry and prose that published four issues in 1961 and 1962, one (III-IV) a double issue. The magazine was edited by the writer Harry Mathews and the poets John Ashbery, Kenneth Koch, and James Schuyler, [1] [2] all of whom contributed to its four issues. The content was completely in English but the journal was published in France (in Lans-en-Vercors) [2] by Mathews. [1]

The journal was named after the novel Locus Solus by Raymond Roussel. [1] [3]
