The New England Review (NER) is an American quarterly literary magazine established in 1978. It was founded in Hanover, New Hampshire, by Sydney Lea and Jay Parini and moved to Middlebury College in Middlebury, Vermont four years later. In its early years, the magazine struggled financially, until the college agreed to sponsor its annual budget in 1987. From 1982 until 1990, the magazine was named New England Review and Bread Loaf Quarterly, reverting to its original name in 1991.
