Day Late, Dollar Short -- Your Good Luck
Silber is on an Olympian roll these days, producing essay after essay of powerful insight and wicked wit, working at a level we haven't seen since Gore Vidal in his heyday. So do yourself a favor: head on over to his site, and dive in to his latest offerings. I would especially recommend this piece -- on the deep politics of race, sexuality and gender that permeate public discourse and policy, and bedevil much private emotion and action as well -- but you should check out all the recent work over there as well.
