Prism International (styled PRISM international) is a magazine published quarterly in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. [1] [2] Established in 1959, [3] it is Western Canada's senior literary magazine. [1] The magazine was started with name Prism and five years later its name changed to Prism International. [4] The focus of the magazine is contemporary fiction and poetry, but it also publishes drama and creative non-fiction. [1]
The rendering of the name is idiosyncratic: "PRISM" is intentionally all upper-case and "international" is all lower case.[ citation needed]
