New Yorker a must! March 18, 2008 Richard L. Clark (San Francisco) 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
There is little more to say about the best literary magazine in the country. Hendrik Hertzberg adds a very rare, statesmanlike humanism to his political editorials, not seen since Romain Rolland in France. Those of us who crave quality writing and shrink from the shallow escapism of television, video games and cell phones need look no farther than the New Yorker and its mission civilizatrice.
New Yorker for New Reader September 3, 2007 Michael Andrew (Pike Road, AL) I've only read a few New Yorkers before I subscribed, and since I've subscribed I've read quite a few. The magazine is fantastic for people who enjoy essays, columns, fiction, and the like. The New Yorker is also wonderfully varied, with distinctly different issues coming out periodically, like the "fashion issue" the "fiction issue" etc. The avid reader is missing out without a subscription, but an alternative is available: collections of The New Yorker are available on Ebay and elsewhere, as the back issues are certain to be just as rich and insightful.
Some of the finest long non- fiction pieces November 1, 2006 Shalom Freedman (Jerusalem,Israel) 9 out of 14 found this review helpful
Although I often disagree with the 'New Yorker' politically and find the writing of Seymour Hersh offensive I believe that the 'New Yorker' publishes exceptionally fine pieces of non- fiction. I stress the non- fiction because this is what interests me in 'the New Yorker now'.Once it was the fiction of Salinger, Singer, of S.J. Perelman. But in recent years it has been the writing of Malcolm Gladwell, Adam Gopin and a number of others. This is without speaking of the special feeling of class the New Yorker gives, its still topnotch cartoons, the 'On the Town' feature, and the first-rate 'Talk of the Town ' calendar.
