...piece on Cornwell was the work of Senior Editor Stefan Kanfer, who wrote the story; London Correspondent Dean Fischer, who interviewed the novelist; and Reporter-Researcher Anne Hopkins, who did what would be described in Le Carré's spy argot as the "burrowing"-the background research. Fischer talked with Cornwell for 16 hours, both in London and at the author's farmhouse overlooking the Atlantic Ocean. Cornwell lived up to his reputation as a rugged interview only when he jauntily insisted that Fischer join him on a "forced march" of three miles over the cliffs near...
...Israeli League for Human Rights, which Shahak heads, is a non-political group focusing primarily on discrimination against Palestinians, both those living under Israeli military occupation in the West Bank and Gaza Strip and those who are Israeli citizens. In an interview last week, Shahak cited the fight against conditions of administrative imprisonment in the conquered territories as his current preoccupation.

In this case, however, writer and subject are friends of long standing so they have a rapport lacking in some of the other pieces. You may not agree with Schumacher's most profoundly...
WHEN YOU CLOSE this magazine and line your wastebasket with it, or pin the cover on your memo board--each to his own--you may wonder why such mediocre personalities as those the magazine describes are the heroes and heroines of our society. In this sense the editors of Interview should not be blamed for the dreariness of the scenes they record. Form tends to follow content, and it would take genius to paint most ofInterview's subjects in other than flat planes...
