Book Description Mariner Books, United States, 2015. Paperback. Book Condition: New. 208 x 137 mm. Language: English Brand New Book. Composing an essay is like capturing a wave, posits guest editor Ariel Levy. To catch a wave, you need ability and courage and boldness, not just moving water. This years writers are definitely full of nerve, and have written a broad variety of pieces awash in a uniqueness of moods, voices, and stances. Leaving behind an reproachful marriage, separating with a younger self, shedding your sanity to Fitbit, and even giving farewell to a dearest pair of pants imbued with meaning are all unified by the daring of their creation. As Levy notes, Writing around an concept you believe is valuable an idea you suppose is an understanding requires real spirit. The Best American Essays 2015 includes Hilton Als, Roger Angell, Justin Cronin, Meghan Daum, Anthony Doerr, Margo Jefferson, David Sedaris, Zadie Smith, Rebecca Solnit and others ARIEL LEVY, guest editor, has been a staff writer at The New Yorker since 2008.
