The Nation Welcomes New Literary Editor

David Marcus will immediately begin commissioning freelance work.

For close to a decade, John Palattella oversaw The Nation’s arts and books coverage. But following his relocation to Europe, a change was in order.

While Palatella is transitioning to the role of editor at large, with a focus on translations and serializations, David Marcus (pictured) has been installed in New York as the magazine’s succeeding literary editor. From today’s announcement:

“We are delighted to have David, a superb editor, as wise about fiction and pop culture as about politics, philosophy, and history, take over the books and the arts section,” says editor and publisher Katrina vanden Heuvel.
