The Principles of Uncertainty
October 18th—an arbitrary date to some, but to Maira Kalman fans it is a very important day indeed. It is the day her latest book—a compilation of her New York Times Select blog entries "The Principles of Uncertainty" hits shelves. Personally, I can not wait!
As a former New Yorker, who needed her New York Times, and monthly dose of Uncertainty, I bit the bullet last year and became a "Select" subscriber—
but good news for everyone this morning—as of September 19th NYTimes.com is now making all of the "Select" features free to all. Supposedly, I even get a little refund. Yahoo. So if you can't wait to read Maira Kalman's new book, you can catch up on her blog, (which she is due to resume writing next year.)
(Note: I think you still have to create a NYTimes.com login if you don't have one...many newspaper sites require this, but it's still free.)










OOH-OOH-OOH! I am marking the calendar on this one. See, I needed a New Yorker like you to keep me abreast of these things, I generally look for her new books by scanning the bookstore shelves- seriously, that's how I find out about such things.
