The New Yorker Magazine

An opportunity to get inside of important current events and trends. Better if you are retired, however (which I am not), because there's more than can easily be kept up with.

I've been subscribing to The New Yorker for over 55 years. I love it, and have been giving subscriptions as gifts to our 3 sons and their spouses for a very long time.

I anticipate every issue. Reading the New Yorker takes me to places I never go, to ideas I never heard, to writing that awakens me. Thank you.

At times I read almost everything in an issue, at others just a letter, a review, and, of course, a cartoon or two. NY pieces are generally long, thorough and well written but require an investment of time as a result. Just the thing for a long flight or a rainy day.

Witty, wise and trenchant writing.

Even our daughter and son-in-law in Australia read the magazine weekly. Excellent journalism and a wide scope of articles.

If you enjoy good writing and thought-provoking reading, the New Yorker remains a go-to magazine.

We always enjoy the cover, the cartoons,The talk of the town, articles current cinema, TV, music, books, food, and political insight.

Choice venue for commentary on the current political and cultural scene that must be taken into account. Articles from current issues are a recurrent feature on NPR, PBS, MSNBC, other news outlets and publications--and the literary and cultural reviews are the ones future historians will turn back to for a picture of our era and attitudes.

Great writing, great writers, great reading!
