The New Yorker




Just finished reading this weeks issue of The New Yorker! I have a special relationship with the New Yorker, I have been subscribing since my Alabama days...... most years I have piles of New Yorker magazines lying unread around my apartment somewhere, along with books and compilations by David Remnick, Malcolm Gladwell. I even follow contributor Mark Harris on Twitter. Since I've moved back to India I can only afford the online edition, which I surprisingly completed over this weekend. You can see the influence of the New Yorker in the culture of the early 2000's, movies, fashion et al.

 I have to say I have had a fascination with Eustace Tilley (the mascot) for a while now. I cannot believe that he is not a real person. Having lived in my apartment for so long, I'm sure his spirit lives around me. A good first issue to get back to... now to continue my New Yorker and New York Times subscription (in India) along with Harvard Business Review! 
This is a picture of me reading a New Yorker book Wonder Town at an Israeli restaurant in Greenwich Village? circa 2010 



Here's some new music from the New Yorker Selection Junk Drawer Heart by Ryan Davis and the Roadhouse :
