Your Last Chance to Get Our Historic First Print Issue

Today's the day

Very soon, The Metropolitan Review heads to the printers. At last, our beautiful inaugural issue will make its debut. We can’t tell you how excited we are. It marks the culmination of so much hard work and it is, in physical form, a representation of your support for TMR — your dedication, your readership. The printed artifact, in this digital age, is special. You’re going to love what you hold in your hands.

Here’s the deal: there is a very limited print run for the first issue. We aren’t yet a big budget publication. We can’t yet print thousands of copies.

If you subscribe for $80 today, you are guaranteed to receive print issue #1 as well as all subsequent print issues we publish in 2026. If you miss today’s deadline, we can’t promise the first issue will hit your mailbox. You’ll have to wait for issue #2.

And recall the perks of the $80 tier — you are guaranteed free entry into our exclusive print party in downtown Manhattan next month. If you’re not a print subscriber, you’ll have to buy a ticket.

Remember, every subscription we get goes towards making TMR a literary juggernaut. The money heads to the writers. We can’t revive literary culture without you.

If you aren’t up for $80, you can always give $5 a month. We appreciate that, too.

Thank you for all you do and we’ll be back shortly with our regularly scheduled programming.
