Founded in 1979 in response to a management lockout at The Times, and the resulting suspension of their literary supplement, the LRB has become Europe’s leading magazine of books and ideas. Expect long form essays on contemporary culture and politics, excursions into science and technology and on to history and philosophy, alongside in depth book reviews in a tabloid newsprint format.
This edition leads with a review by Marina Warner of a new monograph, published by Mack Books in collaboration with Victoria Miro gallery, exploring the prolific oeuvre of British painter Celia Paul.
