Only in Mexico did the colonizers of the New World find an art as deeply rooted as Europe's. It was an art that had had 3,000 years to grow, nourished in settled, rich and leisurely societies comparable in many ways to the ancient Egyptians.

...fall and this summer, The New York Review of Books has begun to publish bi-weekly: it is one of the most fantastic mixtures of genius and literary offal to descend on the book world in a decade. The genius of the Review is partly its conception--it could grow to fill the void The New Republic left in the 1930's when it slipped from its role of providing focus and direction in exploring liberal ideas.
