Description
One-Year Subscription + Edith Wharton Issue — Four Issues
Start your subscription with one of The Strand Magazine’s most distinctive literary issues: Issue LXXVIII, featuring Edith Wharton’s “The Men Who Saved the World,” a rare wartime story appearing in our pages for the first time.
Set in the summer of 1918, just miles from the front, Wharton’s story captures a world trying to restore elegance while war still rumbles outside the windows. In a French château, orchids, candles, fine china, and polite conversation return to a dining room that had earlier served as a place of battlefield surgery. The result is classic Wharton: precise, unsettling, and sharply observant about privilege, denial, and the rituals of civilized life.
This special issue also features an in-depth interview with Alexander McCall Smith, plus an interview with Sophie Hannah on poetry, puzzles, Agatha Christie, and psychological suspense. Also inside: fiction by Walter Mosley, Stephen Spotswood, and Mike Adamson, including a new Sherlock Holmes mystery, along with reviews of the latest mysteries and thrillers.
With this bundle, you’ll receive the Edith Wharton issue plus a full year of The Strand Magazine — four issues filled with fiction, interviews, reviews, mystery, suspense, and the classic literary discoveries that have made The Strand a favorite among readers and collectors.
Subscriber Bonus: One-year subscribers also receive an exclusive limited-edition Edith Wharton bookmark while supplies last.
