Dear Reader,
It is possible that you may already be familiar with The Guardian Weekly and even given some thought to subscribing to it. But in case you have not yet discovered The Guardian Weekly, please allow me to tell you something about this British newspaper and its strong international interests.
The Guardian, published daily in England, is widely praised for its perceptive reporting and forthright comment. The Guardian Weekly, its weekly overseas edition, contains a selection of articles especially chosen to interest international readers. The Guardian Weekly gives you both British and world news - not condensed, not excerpts, but full reports written with accuracy and flair.
The Guardian Weekly presents a remarkable full coverage of international news and the policies behind it. Included in each week's issue are the following features: THE WEEK, a quick synopsis of world events; THE WEEK IN BRITAIN, including the political picture; BOOK REVIEWS, LETTERS TO THE EDITOR, and BRIDGE, CHESS and CROSSWORD sections plus SPORT, THE ARTS, and COMMERCE.
In addition to Guardian selections of the week, The Guardian Weekly also presents four pages of selections from the renowned U.S. newspaper, The Washington Post, and four pages in English translation from the eminent French newspaper, Le Monde.
The very best of The Washington Post's authoritative reporting on U.S. social and cultural trends is selected, with diplomatic and foreign policy intelligence from Washington, articles on the Arts and sciences, religion, business and entertainment and editorials and personality profiles.
In Le Monde's four page section you will regularly find special news of places and spheres of French influence, articles on French and word economics, the Arts and comments on many aspects of French life today.
