Enjoy the best longform journalism. Every Sunday.
👋 The goal of The Sunday Long Read newsletter is simple: To put the past week’s best journalism in your hands every Sunday morning—or, as a friend said, “to screw up my Sundays with far too much great stuff to read.” Did we mention it’s free?
Don’t take it from us, take it from our reader Katie P, who told us: “I get thousands of emails a week, but The Sunday Long Read is the one I most look forward to.”
This is The Sunday Long Read
We just turned 10!
Since late 2014, we’ve highlighted roughly 10,000 pieces of journalism that taught us something, took us somewhere, or made us rethink what we thought we knew…[and] changed our understanding of what in-depth reporting and narrative storytelling could accomplish.
—Don Van Natta Jr. and Jacob Feldman, founders

The @sundaylongread newsletter is one of the very best things on the Internet. A goldmine of great long form articles on wide range of topics almost every week, for free. An incredible resource.
