Since I joined the Review<\/em> this summer, a flurry of activity has taken over our Chelsea office, which had been uninhabited since the pandemic began and was, as a result, a bit dusty. Things are starting to look quite different around here (thank you to Nick Poe for the tables and to Ohad Meromi for the rehang). We made the decision not to put out a Fall issue because we were feeling ambitious. Over the past few months, we have immersed ourselves in reading\u2014manuscripts, transcripts of interviews in progress, and our very own archives. Inspired by the past issues we love most, we have been working on a beautiful new design for the print quarterly with the Pentagram designer Matt Willey and on all kinds of other surprises with our new art director, Na Kim.<\/p>\n We also have several other new staff members to introduce: Lidija Haas, senior editor, who recently interviewed the philosopher Amia Srinivasan<\/a>; Amanda Gersten, managing editor, who has been setting deadlines with our new printer, Prolific, in Canada (rest assured, they have paper, and it\u2019s recycled); Olivia Kan-Sperling, assistant editor, who has already taken charge of our weekly \u201cReview<\/em>\u2019s Review<\/a>\u201d; and Maya Binyam, contributing editor, whose writing you will soon be able to enjoy regularly right here. And you\u2019ll find plenty of other sustenance there. Last week, we published \u201cThe Chorus,\u201d a prose poem by Ben Lerner\u2014also known, it turns out, as Benner<\/a>\u2014and we are excited to share more new work from some of our favorite writers in the coming months.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.theparisreview.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/smkqyl37mphpycu5i1xgnc2duyurl3esnppv6ip13y0mzxcqenwxotw_qokdnbmb9mqed0xfmqu5p2jec7osbydutbgv5u2jnkj3flogbwb4riejiquznynrz1qbdwulriwq0ao9efduil_edrtkucso11cxtws0-d-e1-ft.jpg\")
