kitchen without labor. But the participatory aspect is the most
important part of the feast." (subscription required) - Janet Potter reviews Amy Waldman's novel about a 9/11 memorial: "Amy Waldman's debut novel asks us to take a long look at ourselves and be disappointed." (subscription required)
- Steve Thorngate on Rick Perry's new ad and the reaction to it: "There's a sort of dualism that comes up when political commentators talk
