A great summary of reading “The Tunnel” from The Millions’ “Year in Reading” series.
Happy to share two great pieces of news: First, a just-launched The Tunnel at 25: An Online Symposium , organized by Ted Morrissey; and second, The Tunnel: 25 th Anniversary Celebration , organized by WU Libraries, home of the William H.
