Best American Essays 2018

I am so thrilled to be in this year’s Best American Essays. In the toc there’s my name alongside Leslie Jamison, Edwige Danticat, Noam Chomsky, Heidi Julavits. It is a huge honor. It is also edited by Hilton Als, who is one of my writing heroes... You can trawl through the toc and most of the essays with Amazon’s “Look Inside” feature... so I link to the beast of internet book sales. (Perhaps though consider buying from your local bookstore, ok?). And you can find the original essay “Rain Like Cotton” here in BOMB.
