Product Description

The oldest continuously-published magazine in the English language, The Spectator has been a bastion of strong opinions and good writing since 1828. Offering a weekly mix of politics, culture and literature the magazine is renowned for its iconoclastic take on the world and for the quality of its writers. Regular contributors to the magazine include Charles Moore, Fraser Nelson, Rod Liddle, Mary Wakefield, Simon Hoggart, Sam Leith, Toby Young and the editor Matthew d’Ancona. There is no party line to which these writers are bound - originality of thought and elegance of expression are the sole editorial constraints.

The Kindle Edition of The Spectator contains most articles found in the print edition, but will not include images or cartoons. For your convenience, issues are auto-delivered wirelessly to your Kindle at the same time the print edition hits the newsstand.

Customer Reviews

Very readable version of an excellent magazine5
I have seen reviews of Kindle magazines which reflect a general disappointment with the formatting for the Kindle. The Kindle version of The Spectator is unlikely to disappoint, except perhaps for the lack of graphics, photos and cartoons. All the main articles appear to be present with none (that I could see) of the problems some other Kindle publications have with things like apostrophes, quotes characters etc. As for the magazine content, it's a joy to be able to read political, social and other types of commentary written so well and often with much wit, and with none of the sensationilsm or cheap point scoring that make such articles in some other publications so tiresome. In short, it's bleedin' ace, mate.
