Only Planet: A Flight-Free Adventure Around the World

A wonderful list of 2021 favorites by @vermontgmg (thank you for the nod). Speaking of books, he has delivered one of our era’s genuine classics: the extraordinary oral history of 9/11, called “Only Plane in the Sky.” https://twitter.com/vermontgmg/status/1477741340414947333

Wildland: The Making of America's Fury
Evan Osnos
For readers of this week’s story in @NewYorker, it’s part of my next book: “WILDLAND: The Making of America’s Fury,” via @fsgbooks. It’s about moving home at this moment in America and unraveling how got here. To answer it, I explored changes in three places I’ve lived. https://t.co/j2yAtEV5ic

The Powerful and the Damned: Private Diaries in Turbulent Times
Lionel Barber
What a pleasure to chat with @lionelbarber whose book about his amazing interviews (Putin, Trump etc) is called “The Powerful and The Damned.” Since I’m not powerful, I’m not quite sure how to take this. https://t.co/b6ZHxtNF3Q

Agents of Subversion: The Fate of John T. Downey and the Cia's Covert War in China
John P. Delury
Loved the new @JohnDelury book “Agents of Subversion.” The story of John Downey’s 20-year captivity in China is a drama beyond fiction, but the book is also a brilliantly original analysis of the politics of suspicion in both Beijing and Washington. https://t.co/l1OCiECvkB https://t.co/43nFFsPCBF

Riverman: An American Odyssey
Ben McGrath
This book, RIVERMAN, is divine. Just extraordinary writing and crystalline thinking. Reminds me of the best of @newyorker prose. Come see the author @mcgrathben talk @eastcitybooks about how he found this extraordinary story (and how it found him, really). One week from today. https://twitter.com/eastcitybooks/status/1513591967858495492
