The name London Review of Books may mislead you. Ostensibly, the articles are book reviews, but barely. The books reviewed are more starting points into long-form articles on their subject matter. The articles are uniformly fantastic, though obviously not uniformly interesting to everyone. I find that every issue carries about three to five articles I find really interesting.
I‘ve just yesterday read an old LRB issue where in one article the book ostensibly reviewed was first mentioned after three whole pages!

So if that's your thing, go nuts
