Fun in the sun
A new issue of New York Review of Books features: Norman Mailer on GWB qua male model and model of masculinity. There's also Luc Sante on Arthur Kempton's book Boogaloo from the gospel roots thru George Clinton to Tupac on down; and some Elizabeth Hardwick Russian litcrit. (The print edition also has an excellent piece on Iraqi Shiites, plus Misha Glenny on murders and the mafia state in Serbia, by the way).
Though why you'd want to read when it's gloriously sunny outside I don't know. Find a shady tree.
