Introducing Plot Twist, our new culture newsletter
Sign up for our take on books, films, TV shows, albums, controversies and more
OUR LATEST subscriber-only newsletter is Plot Twist, your weekly guide to the world of culture. In an era of content overload, our editors will help you decide what to read, what to watch and what to listen to. They’ll tell you about the new books and films they’re enjoying (and the ones they aren’t), as well as the classics they still love. After all, culture matters—and not just because it is how you spend some of your time and money. You can sign up to the newsletter here.
Culture is how we make sense of the world—and, today, the arts are increasingly entwined with politics. Arguments rage over old statues, new orthodoxies and the limits of free speech. At the same time, culture is a serious business, with wars raging among streaming services, technology upending old habits and ever-more outlets competing for eyeballs and ears.
Delivered on a Saturday morning, Plot Twist will help readers navigate all this. It will spotlight important artists and performers, share insights from our correspondents’ interviews and reflect on trends across the cultural world. As a subscriber you will be able to share your views with our journalists and dispute theirs.
