In the New Yorker...
Jeff Wrangler:
I am being amused by Peter Hessler's Aug. 10 & 17 piece on the Chinese lingerie merchants in Egypt.
Anybody in the market for a body stocking with an open rear end? :laugh:
We sure have come a long way from Mr. Shawn's days, haven't we? :laugh:
Jeff Wrangler:
Well, here's one for the books. I really am caught up on my New Yorkers. I brought the Aug. 10 & 17 issue along to work today to pass on to my coworker. I had to bring a book with me to have something to read over lunch.
Front-Ranger:
Great! Perhaps you can give us laggers some tips on what to read and what to avoid, particularly in the fiction issue.

No can do. As soon as I finish reading something I forget it. Was that the issue with Louise Erdrich's story in it? You might look back over the thread, see if I had anything to say about anything in that issue, whenever it was.

I started the article on "soft censorship" last night and am looking forward to reading more, as I am particularly interested in this issue.
