Its goal is to combine memorable and innovative American work with a healthy leavening of writing from England and the Commonwealth. It contains poetry (to include prose poems, experimental/visual poems, and haiku and tanka), very short fiction, occasional interviews, reviews, and line art. It is published in America and distributed in the U.S., England, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand. Bogg was founded in England in 1968 by George Cairncross as an alternative to the rather polite, formal, and exclusive British literary magazines of that period. It has always had a firm grassroots base, reserving a significant amount of space in each issue for writers making their first appearance in Bogg. In 1975 the magazine, still published in England, added an American supplement edited by John Elsberg. In 1980 Bogg moved to the United States, and Elsberg became the publisher and editor.'.
