Also in this issue: Jonathan Raban: On Flooded Mississippi; Ethan Canin: J.D. Salinger's Heir Apparent?; Nick Hornby: On Teenage Sex; Timothy Garton Ash: With Erich Hoenecker; Michael Ignatieff: On The Era of the Warlord; and Marking the 75th Anniversary of Armistice Day, Steve Pyke's chilling World War I portraits.
