Mid-Year Top Ten
Well, we’re slightly past the mid-year point, and I thought it might be fun to look back and pick my ten favorite 2010 New Yorker articles to date. Here they are (note the first three are from the fantastically great April 19th "Journeys" issue):
1. Lauren Collins’s “Angle of Vision”
2. Elif Batuman’s “The Memory Kitchen”
3. Burkhard Bilger’s “Towheads”
4. Susan Orlean's, “Riding High”
5. Alex Ross’s “The Spooky Fill”
6. Tad Friend’s “First Banana”
7. Alec Wilkinson’s “Immigration Blues”
8. Kelefa Sanneh’s “Boxed In”
9. Ben McGrath’s “Strangers on the Mountain”
10. Janet Malcolm’s “Iphigenia in Forest Hills”
