Floating Off the Page: The Best Stories from The Wall Street Journal's "Middle Column"
by Ken Wells, Michael Lewis
by Ken Wells, Michael Lewis
For 67 years, one of the distinguishing features of the Wall Street Journal has been the "A-hed," a special column where journalists treated unusual stories with excellent writing and humor. Among those who worry about Rupert Murdoch's purchase of the paper, the a-hed or "middle column" is one of the most frequent concerns.
Surely this argues for a long series of collections like this one. The odd, the offbeat, the beautiful, they are all here, subtly expanding and lightening one's view of the world.
