$TRUMP, The Perfect Winter Noir, Best Soup in NYC, & Best Bob Dylan Songs You've Never Heard

Some recommendations from the Editor of the Mars Review

Hello from the editor’s desk of the Mars Review. I’m trying out a recommendations column, where I’ll suggest the best shows, films, books, restaurants, and links to the smartest takes from the internet. In this edition:

• An ice-cold Nordic noir that’s just the right amount of cozy and just the right amount of depraved . . . with a subtly contra-feminist message?

• Truly the best place to get soup in New York City, with an insane back story involving fraud and fury

• Links to great takes on the Trump and Melania meme-coins launched this weekend

• Three great “alternate take” Dylan tracks you’ve likely never heard before.

If any of that might be up your alley, or if you just want to support a completely independent book review, go ahead and mash that subscribe button. You’ll get more posts like this, access to all our influential back issues, upcoming paid posts, full episodes of all podcasts, special deals on our legendary events, and more.

I’m always down for recommendations. Shoot me an email at [email protected] if you have any. And if you’re a paid subscriber, let me know what you think of this format. Also, thank you.
