Christopher, if you’re getting rid of your TNR subscription, why not pick up a new subscription (a mere $25) to the Virginia Quarterly Review, which is not at all the same thing but which won multiple National Magazine Awards this year (upsetting such expected frontrunners as The New Yorker)? I’m barely through the spring issue, which is about intelligent design and contains beautiful reproductions of watercolors made by the artist aboard the HMS Beagle, a lengthy excerpt from Marjane Sartrapi’s new graphic novel Chicken With Plums, among other sobering and insightful things; but the summer issue (on stands July 1) looks equally promising.

Subscribe here. They also have an okay, irregularly updated blog.
