If you’re a fan of The New Yorker and mid-20th-century literary New York, you’ll enjoy this charmingly offhanded, slightly gossipy glimpse into the workings of an iconic magazine and its famous contributors. It is also the memoir of a young Midwesterner and her career as both receptionist and would-be writer in very different time for women and the big city.
