The Best American Essays 2009 by Robert Atwan, Mary Oliver
5.0
If all the other volumes in this series are as good as the two I just read (Science and Nature 2009 and Essays 2009), then I am missing some fantastic writing each year.
Gah! How will I read it all???
But I digress. The best essay in this collection is "The God of the Desert" by Richard Rodriguez; a very evocative meditation on touring the religious sites (Christian, Jewish, and Muslim) of the Holy Land.
