The Office

Collective byline

House notes, openings, and the standing recommendations refreshed each season. Where a piece is signed “The Office”, it is the collective work of the desk that arranged it — usually the duty editor for the issue, sometimes the city desk that contributed the dispatch.

The Office writes when the office, plural, has something to record that no single byline owns.

Section II · The Anthology

Selected lines.

Five sentences from the writings of The Office, drawn from the Journal and from the advisor's notes that close the catalogue pages. Compiled by the editor.

The standing recommendations are refreshed each spring not because they change every year, but because the office reads them aloud, slowly, and asks whether it would still write the same sentence today.

The Office writes when the office, plural, has something to record that no single byline owns. The signature is a courtesy to the reader who would otherwise wonder.
