Description

Final Edition is a one-issue-only political magazine written by people who are aesthetes and literary writers and edited by Wallace Shawn. The first - and last - issue consists of five all new, never before published pieces. One of them is an exclusive interview with Noam Chomsky in which he ranges ferociously across the present and ancient worlds, giving his thoughts on the development of the internet, the 2004 election and the God of the Bible. The other pieces comprise two essays, one poem and one short story, all of them dealing with the political climate of the USA today.
