Long-time New Yorker copy editor Mary Norris’s delightful commmentary on language, mixed with her personal story of decades of life at the New Yorker, is destined to become an instant classic. Norris offers a bit of something for everyone. She sprinkles her work with marvelous anecdotes about fabled New Yorker writers, offers truly thoughtful commentary and history lessons on language, and also manages to be laugh-out-loud funny on a regular basis. It’s hard to imagine the reader who would not enjoy spending time with Norris. You can see the Monitor's full review of "Between You and Me" here.
