Sorry, no lurid news about your favorite New Yorker authors getting into (or out of) rehab. But there’s plenty of news, and I’m here to spread the wealth.
Take your pick: you can check out this Richard Ford sampler; rumors that a new T. Coraghessan Boyle story, “The Lie,” will soon be appearing in your copy of The New Yorker; a short piece on the pleasures of reading Mollie Panter-Downes, who covered WWII for TNY; or this pleasantly addled dual review of Salman Rushdie’s “The Shelter of the World” (from the January 25, 2008 issue) and a Bollywood movie about the same characters.
Enjoy!
