Nice read. Quite touching that his father genuinely tried making a connection to his son, despite the distance, both culturally and physically.

I subscribed to the New Yorker recently, and I have to say that it's been nice reading more long-form content that has an ending. There are just a few stories everyday, and every week there's a new issue to read through. And of course the decades-long backlog of stories, profiles, and journalism to go through.
