Our April 15 issue is now live, featuring Tina Beattie and the story of Catholic Women Speak, a Facebook-group-turned-book compiled with the intent to give women a greater presence at last year's Synod on the Family. Agnes R. Howard holds up the response to the Rubella epidemic as a way to confront today's Zika virus without needing to "resort" to abortion. Terry Eagleton muses on the limits of "identity politics" and the "culture industry." And James Sheehan showcases three new books on the holocaust.

J. Dionne Jr.'s diagnoses of conservatism in Why the Right Went Wrong to be problematic for a variety of reasons.
Richard Alleva reviews Hungarian writer/director László Nemes's film Son of Saul, which takes place at Auschwitz one day in late 1944; and Celia Wren reviews Horace and Pete, a "disquieting" television show created and written by the comedian Louis C. K.
