Just in time for the summer reading season, the May/June issue
of the BloomsburyReview has arrived to whet our appetite for books from
presses large and small. The Denver-based magazine boasts reviews
on books from a wide array of genres, ranging from fiction to
biographies to young adult and children's books. Published six
times a year, Bloomsbury Review also features several
author interviews and profiles in each issue. Interviewed in the
latest issue is Marjane Satrapi, author of the widely acclaimed
graphic novel
Persepolis:The Story of a Childhood, her
autobiographical account of coming of age during Iran's Islamic
Revolution. -- Natalie Hudson

Socialist Viewpoint offers 'news and
analysis for working people.' The bimonthly magazine out of San
Francisco focuses on labor issues, while keeping a close (and
skeptical) watch on national and international politics. The
May/June issue features an antiwar-themed section, including a
piece reprinted from Jason Miller's blog,
Thomas Paine's Corner, in which the
author argues that 'each of us in the United States is complicit
in the crimes of our nation to some degree.' In her 'Open Letter
to the Antiwar Movement,' culled from
Global Research's website, Hana Abdul Ilah
Al Bayaty calls on antiwar activists to 'condemn the
ignorance that accepts the dehumanizing of the other.' --
