Brooklyn Rail review
If you live outside the borough of Kings or City of New York you likely haven’t heard of The Brooklyn Rail, but it’s worthy of wider attention, and not just because it just ran a sharp review of Our Lot, which you can read here. The Rail takes on New York City neighborhood politics and avant-garde arts with a passion and seriousness so dismayingly absent from most allegedly alt-media. The Rail always reminds readers exactly what’s at stake, and it’s not lifestyle but the inverse and far more potent possibility that New Yorkers, and by extension the rest of the planet (for are we not a tiny, quasi-representative sample?) can live a meaningfully interconnected life in a delicately shared space.
How the homes we live in turned into the monsters that ate our economy and the United States became a nation obsessed with real estate.
