McSweeney’s E-book For iPad

McSweeney’s is an independent publishing house based in San Francisco. Our converted laundromat is home to the Quarterly (mostly short fiction), the Believer (monthly interviews, reviews, columns, and essays), Wholphin (DVD quarterly of short films by Miranda July, Spike Jonze, Alexander Payne, and others), and books by authors including Nick Hornby, William Vollmann, and Michael Chabon.


Each week you’ll receive exclusive multimediastories and plus new humor pieces from our website everyday. Your app purchase gets you six months of weekly Small Chair content, plus semi-eternal delivery of the website material, plus deluxe access to our classy ebook store. We’ll use Push Notifications to let you know each time a new piece is ready.


Fans of holding McSweeney's quarterly tomes in their hands won't see the point in downloading ebooks from their revamped app, but for casual readers it's terrific value. Version two takes the first version's slick design to a whole new level.

Not only can you still read the online articles, but you can receive weekly stories, videos, interviews, art and so on, plus six months' worth of weekly Small Chair updates (their print articles). They've got a rollcall of famous names' work plus plenty more lesser-known, such as Spike Jonze, Judd Apatow, Weird Al Yankovic and Francis Ford Coppola.
