  1. Sweat-free labels to change the garment trade [Blowback]

    In a May 7 Op-Ed <a href="http://www.latimes.com/news/opinion/commentary/la-oe-greenwald-bangladesh-triangle-fire-20130507,0,5592068.story">article</a>, Richard Greenwald and Michael Hirsch exhort consumers to support the workers who make our clothes rather than the global apparel industry that exploits them with low wages and unsafe working conditions. Yet exactly how we should do this remains unclear. We need to be more specific about our moral responsibility so that the "labels we wear not be stitched in blood."

  2. Duke Ellington's music lives to be heard

    It's no big thing to play the music of Duke Ellington. That's done all the time: in cabarets, concert halls, movies, Broadway theaters and anywhere jazz musicians assemble. Ellingtonia, a word coined by admirers who realized that no existing musical category could contain him, is virtually inexhaustible: some 2,000 pieces, many in multiple versions and settings, often to the point of recomposed variations.

  10. Review: 'Harvard Square' by Andre Aciman

    Andr&eacute; Aciman's entertaining and moving new novel, "Harvard Square," begins in the present, with the fraught ritual of the college tour. In this case, it is complicated by the father's status as a graduate. As his son ricochets between hope and scorn, the father, narrating the story, is caught in a haze of middle-aged nostalgia and regret. Visions of bygone days appear to him out of the mists, like Brigadoon.
