Plus: The Big Apple During Wartime; Charlotte Brontë; Adolescence
| Our October 9 issue is now online, with Verlyn Klinkenborg on the uncanny octopus, Frances Wilson on the peerless Charlotte Brontë, Hari Kunzru on masculinity in crisis in Adolescence, Brenda Wineapple on the Big Apple, Scott W. Stern on the history of women’s prisons, Leslie T. Chang on the seductions of Chinese cuisine, Neal Ascherson on a flight from the Nazis, Dorothy Sue Cobble on home work, Joshua Hammer on the last days of Yevgeny Prigozhin, Catherine Nicholson on King Lear in China, poems by Randall Mann and Jane Hirshfield, and much more. A painstaking investigation into twelve prisoners who tunneled to freedom from the Nazis in Lithuania reveals how much of their story remains unknowable. A new history of New York City during World War II captures the glory, tawdriness, poverty, narcissism, beauty, and grime of this “aggregation of villages.” Elizabeth Gaskell’s greatest novel may have been her biography of Charlotte Brontë. Adolescence illustrates how, in the hypercapitalist competition of toxic masculinity online, teenagers have the most to lose. Is America Abandoning Immigrants?
