The Best American Essays 2011 by Robert Atwan, Edwidge Danticat

4.0

One could spend one's life reading essays. But I don't want to miss great fiction and a few nonfiction either.

Recommend:
(a) The Washing - Muslim burial customs in the diaspora setting of the US. Fascinating
(b) What Broke My Father's Heart - allowing death to happen in a more natural setting with more dignity
(c) Generation Why? - Zadie Smith on Facebook. Very critical but worth engaging the argument.
