Andrew Sullivan, “one of the most influential journalists of the last three decades” (
The New York Times)
and
founding editor of
The Daily Dish
presents a collection of 60 his most iconic and powerful essays of social and political commentary from
The New Republic
,
The Atlantic
,
The New York Times Magazine
,
New York
magazine, and more.
Over the course of his career, Andrew Sullivan has never shied away from staking out bold positions on social and political issues. A fiercely independent conservative, in 1989 he wrote the first national cover story in favor of marriage equality, and then an essay, “The Politics of Homosexuality,” in
The New Republic
in 1993, an article called the most consequential of the decade in the gay rights movement. A pioneer of online journalism, he started blogging in 2000 and helped define the new medium with his blog,
The Daily Dish
. In 2007, he was one of the first political writers to champion the presidential campaign of Barack Obama, and his cover story for
The Atlantic
, “Why Obama Matters,” was seen as a milestone in that campaign’s messaging. In the past five years, he has proved a vocal foe both of Donald Trump and of wokeness on the left. Loved and loathed by both left and right, Sullivan is in a tribe of one.
Bold, timely, and thought-provoking, this collection of “trenchant observations from an influential journalist” (
Kirkus Reviews
) on culture, politics, religion, and philosophy demonstrates why he continues to be ranked among the most intriguing and important public intellectuals in US media.
