Killed
great journalism too hot to print
by David Wallis
- 1 Have read
"Killed resurrects articles that publications like Harper's, Vanity Fair, and The New Yorker assigned to renowned writers, then discarded - not for reasons of quality but because of their potential for unwanted controversy. Skittish editors feared that publishing these provocative pieces about politics, sex, corruption, and culture might upset their pals, enrage readers, or offend advertisers." "Killed also anthologizes under-published stories that were initially rejected by editors, including a censored book review by George Orwell (with a new introduction by Christopher Hitchens) that London's Observer deemed unpatriotic during wartime."--BOOK JACKET.
