On the plane yesterday to and from Dallas, I read what I think is the best article on the history and current state of publishing. The article is in the March 2009 issue of Harper’s Magazine and is titled, “The Last Book Party: Publishing Drinks to a Life After Death,” by Gideon Lewis-Kraus. (Kraus is a brilliant writer.)
Unfortunately, when I went to Harper’s online the article is not retrievable or viewable UNLESS you are a Harper’s subscriber.
Drats! Darn! UGH! Drats!
So though it’s very frustrating that Harper’s does not have this article online (Harper’s please trust the Web and get your stuff online completely), I have to urge all of you to go and buy Harper’s Magazine and read this article.
Read it read it read it.
