Journalism & Nonfiction Editorial Review
The Best American Essays 2022 Paperback is a compilation that some readers feel is aggressively agenda driven and narrow in its scope. While the writers are generally talented, some essays do not meet the usual standard of the 'Best' series. The selection of stories prioritizes DEI, sacrificing creativity and expansiveness. Despite this, the book provides interesting topics for discussion and offers a creative variety that surpasses previous years. Guest editor Alexander Chee's foreword sets the theme of finding a place to navigate a chaotic world. The varying quality of the essays is evident, with standout pieces like Deborah Gwartney's moving elegy and a weaker start with Brian Reynolds' essay. Strong writing on gay and trans themes is present, along with brave attempts to describe bipolar breakdowns. The collection makes readers contemplate identity struggles and prompts self-reflection. Some readers found the collection exhausting, with a repetitive focus on addiction and being 'other'. Overall, the essays in this collection evoke nuanced humanity and provide a deeper understanding of oneself.
