London Review Of Books

The London Review of Books is a fortnightly publication which, surprisingly enough, examines new book releases in academic and literary fields. Key areas include literature, history, philosophy, art and drama. In addition it also features opinion pieces, political and social discussion, economic activity as well as various poems dotted throughout the magazine.
A favourite amongst academics and the public, the London Review of Books provides some incredibly refreshing insights coupled with an excellent writing standard. Alan Bennett has called it, ‘the liveliest, the most serious and also the most radical literary magazine we have.‘
I have been a subscriber to the London Review of Books for a couple of months and I am constantly amazed by the depth of research and the quality of writing that is poured into each publication. Each reslease provides you with provocative pieces that really make you sit up and pay attention. The best part of the London Review of Books is its ruthless analysis and criticism, there is no safe ground, no view that cannot be challenged and this is an important quality in a world that has almost given up caring.
