” The voice in my mind nagged me all through October: “Get your flu shots.” An otherwise fairly responsible parent, I was for some reason late to the inoculation party this year, a tardiness for which I had no real excuse, especially amid the Dallas Ebola scare, which sent me and my wife to our iPhones for the latest news when we should have been paying closer attention to more mundane matters of family health. But the real-life Hollywood movie appeared to have been green-lit, filming as we watched: the government was bumbling, the Dallas hospital was ass-covering, guys in yellow suits were disinfecting doorways in the middle of the night, parents were pulling their children out of school, protocols were being breached, caution was abundant, and soon, surely, we’d all be fogging our safety goggles and duct-taping ourselves into homemade Hefty-bag hazmat suits to fight over potable water, probably even here in Oak “

by Peter de Sève
“It’s an unprecedentedly excellent time to drink beer in Brooklyn, as the cover suggests. Just don’t become a snob about it.” Read more about Peter de Sève’s cover for our food issue.”
” In September, the Brooklyn restaurant Luksus became the world’s first beer-focussed eatery to receive a Michelin star. A year ago, I visited the restaurant, which is in the heart of Polish Greenpoint, and loved the Nordic-influenced tasting menu. There is no wine or liquor served; instead, each course is served with a beer. For me, the most memorable was a Berliner Weisse called Justin Blåbær, which is aged in Brunello barrels and tastes like cherries and Christmas. The blueberry-and-wintergreen sorbet that accompanied it evoked a sensation of trudging through a snowy forest singing carols on a wintry night.”

“Mom & Pop Mega Superstore”by Bruce McCall
“Everything that I knew in 1964 is gone,” says this week’s cover artist, Bruce McCall, who came to New York from Canada that year. “I realize there’s a natural cycle. Nothing lasts more than thirty years. No shop, no franchise, even, ever stays more than thirty years. It all just keeps flipping over all the time.
“What’s going on in New York today, and I guess in most cities—the turnover of small parcels of property to big megastores and apartment buildings with large chain stores—it leaves you feeling very nostalgic. The restaurants I went to, the dry cleaner, the bank, the greasy spoons—they’re all different now. I lived on East Seventy-first Street for my first three years in Manhattan. Now a lot of the old brownstones there have been torn down, and they’re huge apartment buildings. You can’t live in this city anymore unless you’re a millionaire.”

” Ferguson, Missouri” by Eric Drooker
“The police shooting of Michael Brown resonates on a personal level with me,” Eric Drooker says about next week’s cover, which was inspired by images from the scene.* (One of the most iconic was by Scott Olson, a Getty photographer, who was detained by police there.) “An artist friend of mine was killed by a cop in lower Manhattan, back in 1991. He happened to be black, and the police officer was never indicted.” Drooker continues, “As a resident of Manhattan’s Lower East Side, I witnessed the blurring distinctions between the police and military during the Tompkins Square riots of the eighties. I’ll never forget the day the N.Y.P.D. showed up in a military tank to evict nonviolent squatter friends from buildings on Avenue B and Thirteenth Street, where I grew up. This incident triggered a vivid childhood memory of the police driving a similar armored tank on East Fourteenth street, in 1968, to quell possible ‘disturbances’ after Martin Luther King was assassinated.

Τελευταία εβδομάδα του Αυγούστου και τελευταίες στιγμές δροσιάς
Ο Ηλίας Κυριαζής σκιτσάρει το σημερινό εξώφυλλο του Αυγούστου, με θέμα το καλοκαίρι…
Καθώς τελειώνει το καλοκαίρι, προσπαθείς να μαζέψεις όσες περισσότερες στιγμές δροσιάς γίνεται. Η στιγμή που βρίσκεσαι στη θάλασσα και βουτάς είναι αυτή που σε κάνει να αποκτάς και πάλι τη χαμένη σου ηρεμία. Η επαφή με τον υδάτινο κόσμο έχει ιδιότητες που κανείς μας δεν μπορεί να φανταστεί, γι αυτό και η σχέση μας μαζί του είναι τόσο μοναδική. Για τους περισσότερους, το καλοκαίρι ταυτίζεται με τη θάλασσα και όλη τη μαγεία που υπάρχει γύρω από αυτή.

“Fifty-ninth Street Bridge,” by Eric Drooker via:newyorker
” Outside of New York, people are utterly dependent on cars to get anywhere at all,” Eric Drooker, the artist behind this week’s cover, “Fifty-ninth Street Bridge,” says. “No doubt the romantic lives of Americans are totally wrapped up in automobiles,” he adds. “But, as a native New Yorker, my experience has always been gloriously different. Instead of making out in the back seats of cars, I came of age making out on fire escapes, down in the subway, up on rooftops, and on bridges.”

Coney Island by Mark Ulriksen
” Around here, one rarely goes to the beach in the summer because it’s so foggy, windy, and cold. You’d never go in the water unless you’re wearing a wet suit. Even though I ride my bike there all of the time, the beach is not a summer destination—it’s more of an end-of-the-line type of destination, better suited for flying a kite or walking a dog than catching rays. But, if you live in New York, Coney Island is the place to go when the weather is hot.”
