The New Yorker brings you international current affairs, comment, fiction, reviews, humour, and goings on, from a New York angle every week. All leavened by a healthy dose of cartoons.
This issue for 16 November 2026 leads with the headline ‘The Big Blue Wave’, following the Democrats landslide ‘midterm sweep’ last week. David Remnick opens the issue with a breakdown of the results, as well as an analysis of the voters key concerns and what the historic tide shift signals for the future of US politics. Elsewhere, Nick Berardini reports on a former NBA player, whose sports gambling addiction led to a lifetime ban, and Kelefa Sanneh announces Tinashe’s arrival as a popstar.
Cover: ‘Sea Change’ by Barry Blitt.
