In the New Yorker...

I loved Master Class too. I saw it many years ago in Boston, with Faye Dunaway--brilliaint!
Meanwhile, David Sedaris's article in the current New Yorker on learning languages is hilarious. I love how he describes German: "It's like English, but sideways."

Calvin Trillin's memoirish article about the Freedom Riders in the most recent issue is really good.

I'm looking forward to that one. This issue has a lot of good stuff. The article on Wilkie Collins is good, too. I knew the name and the titles of his two most famous works, but I knew nothing about his life.

I liked Alec Wilkinson's article on the Tiny House Movement. I'd like to know more about that--like, What do you do about plumbing?
