Written on: 04/02/2005 by annemay18 (2 reviews written)

London Review of Books - Frequent, broad, and in-depth coverage of books, covering literature, history, science, whatever. Regular features, such as "Shortcut." Occasional short story from a collection. Subscribers to LRB also enjoy access to the full archive online at no additional charge. Plus the personals section in the back of the magazine is unrivalled as far as I am concerned! 24 issues a year. (More or less bi-weekly.) (read more)
