The Assumption of Permanence
If you missed today's edition of our Clubland Q&A live around the planet, here's the action replay. Simply click above and settle back for an hour-plus of Mark's answers to questions from Steyn Club members around the planet on old Steynian themes - demography is destiny, permanence is the assumption of every age - and new wrinkles, such as the particular location of Bagram air base and the greening of Boris. You don't have to be a Mark Steyn Club member to listen to the show, so please click away and enjoy it, if that's the word. But we do thank Steyn Clubbers for, as always, some excellent questions, and we'll pick up a few of the ones Mark didn't get to in the days ahead. On a lighter note, that audio edition of Steyn's Song of the Week ... |

A Clubman's NotesAll for a Farrier's Bill
Following our somewhat belated Clubland Q&A and the Thursday rerun of the Serenade Radio edition of Steyn's Song of the Week, here we go with Episode Nineteen of our current Tale for Our Time - Jane Austen's first completed novel Northanger Abbey. Larry Durham, a South Carolina member of The Mark Steyn Club, is quite enjoying it: Being a member since only January, I had a lot of catching up to do with past Tales. I have to say that Austen has been a pleasant listen - and came at a good time after a steady diet of Wells, Kafka, Orwell, Gogol and London backdropped by the reality of our own dystopia. Man cannot live on dystopic fiction alone, Larry, so we try to offer a varied diet. On the other hand, in tonight's episode, our heroine, who ... A Clubman's NotesCost Me What It May
