Marco Roth (born 1974) in New York, New York is a co-founder and former editor of n+1 magazine.[1][2]

Life

Roth is a graduate of The Dalton School, Columbia University, and began but did not finish a PhD in Comparative Literature from Yale University.[3][4] In 2009, he was awarded a Pew Fellowship in the Arts,[5] and the Roger Shattuck prize for literary criticism in 2011.[6] He lives in Philadelphia.[7]

He resigned from his masthead position at n+1 in response to the publication of what he called "an unapologetic, celebratory account of the pro-Palestinian rallies on Oct. 8" following the 2023 Hamas-led attack on Israel.[8]

Essays and criticism

His work has appeared in the Dissent,[9] New York Times, Harper's, The London Review of Books, The Times Literary Supplement and the Nation.[10] His memoir, The Scientists: A Family Romance, about his father's death and "truths and limitations in literature",[11] came out in 2012.[12]
