Average Rating: Rating: - Not just for New Yorkers I originally wrote a review here after only subscribing to the New Yorker for 6 months. Now it's been 12 and I can report that the more I read it the more I get from it. I just renewed my subscription for 2 years. While I don't have any familiarity with the way the magazine had been edited prior to Remnick, word has it his approach is more news-driven than issues or cultural piece-driven. To some extent this is true, however there is still that certain, New Yorkerness about it that probes deeply into the current issue with attention to the human and cultural aspects of it. I read the New York Times for news. I read the New Yorker for context. Remnick's choices are also extraordinarily prescient. In many cases, the in-depth profiles the New Yorker does on people, places and situations tend to become leading stories in major dailies down the road. In this age of playing catch up with what's going on in the world and trying to read through spin and deceit, the New Yorker's lead-of-the-pack approach offers something akin to honesty. The thinking is that if they are out ahead with a story, they can't be spinning someone else's news. Some critize the New Yorker as a middle-brow publication. These critiques tend to come from the far left, where anything short of purist Marxism is frowned upon as being dilapidated drivel. The New Yorker is always articulate and much more global in its coverage than the namesake would suggest. Week after week the New Yorker churns out a beautiful and timely journal of the people, arts, events and lives we are all witness to. At the heavily discounted yearly subscription rate, this is money well spent. Rating: - Worth the Money I have subscribed to several magazines over the years and "The New Yorker" continues to be the most consistently satisfying one I receive. I thoroughly enjoy the excellent articles, and always read each issue from cover to cover. The depth and breadth of the reportage is essentially unequaled in magazine journalism. A liberal slant generally exists in the political writing, and while I certainly weary of that and don't find it justifiable, it's not, by any means, a characteristic unique to "The New Yorker". Someone once made the comment that reading "The New Yorker" can make you feel smart without doing anything. There is so much to learn; I find it a great companion to my college history, English, and art courses. I hope the quality of this magazine continues. If so, I will be a subscriber for a long time. Rating: - The Best! This is the only magazine I read from cover to cover. Each issue usually contains a longish article (12-20 pages); there's no way to predict what it will be about, but you can expect it to be interesting and well-written. Many times, these articles are by hot writers with a new book out or forthcoming. Each issue also has a short story, a few poems, several shorter articles, and humorous items. The book, dance, music, art, and film reviews are good reading. Usually, one of the reviews is an in-depth look at an author or artist, a comparison of recent books on a similar topic, etc. Try it, and try reading even the articles that are outside your usual interests. You'll be surprised at how much you'll enjoy it.
