Kore has been publishing the creative genius of women writers since 1993 to maintain a more equitable public discourse and historical record. Greek for "daughter," Kore (kor-ay) recalls the myth of Persephone—the story of a daughter taken into the underworld who re-emerges above ground half the year because of a bargain struck by her mother and the nasty fellow who runs the place down below. It is the daughter's coming up to the surface each year that marks the change in season.
As a community of literary activists devoted to bringing forth a diversity of voices through works that meet the highest artistic standards, Kore Press publishes women's writing that deepens awareness and advances progressive social change.
