Anyone can comment, please do. If I haven't mentioned your favorite recent New Yorker article (or the one you loathed but couldn't tear your fascinated eyes away from) please just speak up anywhere you see fit.

I put down the whole issue, when I saw that someone had put a Style Issue sticker on the front.
Your not-reading has been duly noted.
well 'the rest is noise' is now out, so maybe your comments on it are expected, or not, whatever.
Judith Thurman has a book too, but it's mostly stuff already published in TNY looks like. Oh well... still will probably get it.
I love how Bjork is blurbed on Alex Ross' book.
Thanks for asking, but I'm afraid that I'm more likely to read reviews of Ross than Ross for the next couple of months.
