30 August 2009: Enigmatic New Yorker Cover

Paul August 30th, 2009

A feminist friend writes me the following about the enigmatic cover of the August 31 issue of The New Yorker: “We see, from the back, a white-haired man carrying a slender girl into the water, toward the moon, from a beach marked with a No Trespassing sign. Could this be a reference to Ted Kennedy and Mary Jo Kopechne, and a message of some sort of redemption?” What do you think?
