This is Ross Barkan's newsletter - original essays on politics, society, and culture
I'm the author of three books and my next novel, Glass Century, will be published in 2025. I'm a contributing writer to the New York Times Magazine and my reporting and essays have appeared in New York Magazine, the Nation, and elsewhere.
Essays and conversations about big ideas that don't need a news hook. (Auch auf deutsch ๐ฉ๐ช. Aussi en franรงais ๐ซ๐ท.)
Written for (and by) the insatiably curious. Expand your conceptual vocabulary with new ideas in your inbox 3x per week.
