Hey @nyrbclassics, I see you'll soon publish the first volume of Proust's In Search of Lost Time. Does this signal a larger plan to publish all volumes under the NYRB label?

A question/plea for techies: does anybody know of a rock-solid option for syncing an Apple calendar to my Google calendar/Android? Feels like Apple changed their API in recent months to make it much more difficult. I could even do third party!
