Are you talking truth of content or some problem with what I was
trying to show in the layout?

It is not mine, just grabbed for temporary purposes for text from
London Review of Books, perhaps go read it there. In the snippet
grabbed, the only thing I looked at was the use of h2 to show the
name of the author. I changed the markup for this because it
irritated me too much to see h2 being used merely to reduce the
font size.

Thank you. That is a good approach.
I suppose it can't be replicated if the middle content would have
fixed width ... Or would?
