Nel tracciare la storia del giornalismo italiano il libro prende le mosse dalla nascita delle prime gazzette secentesche, segue le vicende della stampa registrandone il ruolo via via crescente nella società e si chiude quando il giornalismo stampato, già affiancato da quello radiofonico e televisivo, entra in un futuro contrassegnato dai nuovi media elettronici. Criterio ispiratore è quello di coniugare le vicende salienti del giornalismo con gli eventi politici, sociali ed economici più rilevanti della storia italiana nell'arco degli ultimi quattro secoli.

The Silence of Your Name revolves around the suicide of Marshall’s charismatic and idealistic young husband, Tim Buxton, while they were in Ghana with Operation Crossroads Africa—a progenitor of the Peace Corps. Marshall weaves in her husband’s hidden family history, one tied to Boston’s wealthy social scene and the deaths of notorious Black Sun publisher Harry Crosby and Tim’s aunt Josephine Rotch Bigelow. By allowing listeners to experience these distinct periods of time in great detail, Marshall illuminates the toxic effects of denial across classes and generations.

He told her to get in her car and drive to her alma mater, the Madeira School. Her former headmistress, Jean Harris, had just shot Dr. Herman Tarnower, The Scarsdale Diet Doctor. Julia didn’t flinch.

Nun, wenn Sie mir die Anpassung dieses Jane-Austen-Zitats an die gegebenen Umstände verzeihen, möchte ich Ihnen meinen Gedanken erläutern: Sie können sowohl eine bahnbrechende Idee als auch alle Zeit der Welt haben – nur nützt das wenig, wenn es an der Motivation mangelt. Ist auch diese vorhanden, könnten jedoch Fragen auftauchen, die besonders neue Autoren ein wenig überfordern.

In early 2020, Luke Mogelson, who had been living in France and covering the Global War on Terrorism, returned home to report on the social discord that the pandemic was bringing to the fore in the US. Soon, he found himself embedded with militias descending on the Michigan state capitol. From there, the story swept him on to Minneapolis, then to Portland and ultimately to Washington, D.C. His stories for The New Yorker were hailed as essential first drafts of history. They were just the tip of the iceberg.
