We hope as you enjoy your weekend you’ll also find some time to kick back and survey some of the best writing from around the web.

• “The Atticus We Always Knew”, by Dale Russakoff for the New Yorker. 
  • “We mourned the loss of an icon, but we were not shocked. In Birmingham, as in Scout’s Maycomb, the two Atticuses could coexist, and did.”

• “Parker Posey’s Offbeat Glamour“, by Michael Schulman, from New York Times.
  • “Parker Posey emerged from her downtown Manhattan lobby in a zip-up black jumpsuit streaked with white, her newly blond hair in a cotton candy nimbus. She could have passed for Daryl Hannah in “Blade Runner” were it not for the fluffy white Bichon-Maltese poodle at her feet.”

• “List: 21 Days to a Dadbod“, by David Tate, from McSweeney’s.
  • “DAY 3: Look up how much college tuition will cost then multiply it times the number of kids you have. Then, instead of crying, eat a late-night burrito.”

As always, please feel free to comment with responses to the Covered Bridge stories or suggestions of your own.
