Object Lessons Impressions are 500-word essayettes on the hidden lives of ordinary things, published in collaboration with the Pittsburgh Review of Books.
Recalling the brief run of Mini Object Lessons at The Atlantic, each piece will take on a single topic and bore into it quickly yet deeply, and then stop at 500 words. Occasionally, authors from the Object Lessons book series with Bloomsbury will contribute Impressions that spur from their longer investigations.
