I often pick up a handful of free New Yorkers from the University City Library.

The New Yorker, May 19, 2003

Highlights:

Tapka
by David Bezmozgis
(wonderful short story).

Accountants in the Sky
by Elizabeth Kolbert
(on New York state politics--what a disaster)

The Mission
by Calvin Tomkins
(about the Dia Art Foundation--a strange world, buying buildings to fill the first floor with dirt)

The AIDS Rebel
(about an AIDS activist in S. Africa)

A good issue!
