Following the tragic death of Kevin Morrissey, the Virginia Quarterly Review will carry on with plans to release its fall issue, to be published in memory of its managing editor.
However, according to multiple sources, editor Ted Genoways will not be involved in the production of the issue. Sources also claim that, prior to Morrissey’s death, members of the VQR staff contacted the Office of the President to express concerns over working relationships among VQR staff members.
