Why I Support Boston Review

Boston Review deserves your support; they have earned it.

December 29, 2017

Boston Review is my favorite publication: every time its newsletter appears in my inbox, I stop what I'm doing to read. When it comes to publishing fresh and generative ideas, Boston Review has no peer. It is not corporate, it is not trying to be hip, and it is not afraid of hard and hidden truths. No wonder so many eminent public intellectuals are flocking to its pages. Writing for Boston Review is a joy because I know that I will always be edited with rigor and care—a miracle in an age when editing has all but disappeared.

At Boston Review you can also trust that ideas are taken seriously—and that they will always be accessible for all. It is committed to keeping its website completely free.

Boston Review deserves your support; they have earned it. Please join me in helping to sustain Boston Review by making a donation at bostonreview.net/donate. Thanks for your help.
