The collection in use

“The best American essays 2007” edited by David Foster Wallace

“The twenty-two essays in this powerful collection — perhaps the most diverse in the entire series — come from a wide variety of periodicals, ranging from n+1 and PMS to the New Republic and The New Yorker, and showcase a remarkable range of forms. Read on for narrative — in first and third person — opinion, memoir, argument, the essay-review, confession, reportage, even a dispatch from Iraq.”
