Yesterday’s Review section of the Guardian, that I just got round to reading, had three articles from the New York Review of Books that made for interesting reading:
- Malise Ruthven writes on a Divided Iran, picking out the ways, both now and in the past, in how men and women are considered and treated.
- Michael Dirda writes about Patricia Highsmith, the author of The Talented Mr. Ripley ,and its sequels.
- Micahel Tomasky, who I know as the Guardian’s US editor, takes a look at what’s happening with Obama on different aspects of policy.
Some good reading for this gloomy Sunday, anyway.
