Jeff Wrangler:
I read Emily Nussbaum's review of Cucumber, Banana, and Tofu, all from the creator of Queer As Folk. Her review sort of makes me wish I received Logo as part of my cable service. I hope to write more about this on my blog, because here it would go beyond the bounds of the purpose of this thread. I also don't have the issue with me for reference to her review.

CellarDweller:
I hope you do write about it in your blog.  I get logo, but never got around to watching those shows.   I'm sure they'll repeat it.

I read Zadie Smith's story, which was very good but inconclusive; I'm hoping it's an excerpt from a novel.

I also read Louise Erdrich's one-page time-travel thing -- apparently they assigned half a dozen writers to write about time travel. Hers was meh, but since I haven't read the others yet I can't tell if it's a problem with the assignment itself or her execution.

And I read Anthony Lane's review of the Brian Wilson biopic directed by Bill Pohlad. He seemed to like it, more or less.


Jeff Wrangler:
In the June 8 & 15 issue, I recommend Anthony Lane's article on Lewis Carroll and the Alice books.

Good to know. I've been meaning to read that -- I think I have it both up on my computer and in the magazine itself -- and now I'll be sure to get to it
