Readings for Wednesday

Before Wednesday, please re-read “Who Knows Brooklyn” and “View of the World from 9th Avenue” by Saul Steinberg:

On the Saul Steinberg Foundation Web site

On Wikipedia

To help you think about Steinberg’s illustration, consider how it is a map. Some questions you should answer in your post are:

What information is accurate, and what is inaccurate?

What do the inaccuracies mean?

What do you understand about the map from its title?

What is The New Yorker magazine and why was this an appropriate cover for one of its issues?
