Other essays include Wright Thompson's bittersweet profile of Michael Jordan's fifty-something second act ; Jean M. Twenge's revealing look at fertility myths and baby politics ; Janet Reitman's controversial study of the Boston Marathon bomber Dzhokhar Tsarnaev ; Luke Mogelson's harrowing experience accompanying asylum seekers on a potentially deadly sea voyage to Australia ; Lisa Miller's poignant report from Newtown, Connecticut, as the town tries to cope with the aftermath of one of the nation's worst mass shootings ; Emily Nussbaum's critiques of gender and politics on television ; and Witold Rybczynski's poetic engagement with modern architecture .
