Title: the best year yet
Review: This year's edition of The Best American Essays is the best one I've read so far. Almost every essay is worth reading (there are a few that weren't very good), and half of the essays are phenomenal essays. Pick any essay in this collection (go with Spufford's "The Habit") and you can't go wrong. This is what all the various best of volumes should be like. Excellent.
