strange fruit

I'm reading a John Le Carre spy novel from 1989, Russia House - I heard him interviewed on Democracy Now - and, when I'm in the bathroom, I'm reading a clever essay on hipsters, in New York magazine, "adapted from What Was the Hipster? A Sociological Investigation, by the editors of n+1, published this month."

Oh, I also read the profile of fightin' Harry Reid in TNY.
