The New York Review Of BooksThe New York Review of Books (or NYRB) is a biweekly magazine on literature, culture, and current affairs published in New York which takes as its point of departure that the discussion of important books is itself an indispensable literary activity. The New York Review was founded by the present editors, Robert Silvers and Barbara Epstein, during the New York publishing strike of 1963. The Review's first issues included articles by such writers as W.H. Auden, Elizabeth Hardwick, Hannah Arendt, Edmund Wilson, James Wood (critic), Susan Sontag, Robert Penn Warren, Lillian Hellman, Norman Mailer, Gore Vidal, Saul Bellow, Robert Lowell, Truman Capote, William Styron, and Mary McCarthy. The public responded by buying up practically all the copies printed and writing thousands of letters to request that Review continue publication. As of 2003, the publication has a circulation of over 115,000. External link New York Review of Books, The
