One of the Best
Ive been a Spectator reader for perhaps twenty years and consider the magazine one of the best available. As an American citizen, I tend to skip over much of the writing on British domestic politics, but the Spectator offers so very much more. Theres an amazing variety in the subject matter on offer. The reviews are useful.
Most of all, the use of language is precise; the articles concise. Im old fashioned enough to believe that whats worth saying not only may but must be said clearly. The Spectators writing is the antithesis of the usual prose of wet concrete that infest journals like (to pick one at random) the New York Review of Books. And the Spectator is often quit funny, too. Such a deal.
The app has been greatly improved over the years. Early versions of the app made reading a bit of a penance. Those day are mercifully over.
