Two New Yorker Writers Make the Times' "10 Best Books of 2022"

Hooray for two New Yorker writers – Hua Hsu and Rachel Aviv – for making The New York Times’ “The 10 Best Books of 2022”! Hsu is on the list for his memoir Stay True, part of which recently appeared in The New Yorker as “My Dad and Kurt Cobain” (August 22, 2022). Aviv is there for her Strangers To Ourselves, a study of psychological distress, part of which appeared, in different form, in The New Yorker, under the title “The Challenge of Going off Psychiatric Drugs” (April 9, 2019). Congratulations to both writers! 

Postscript: There's another book by a New Yorker writer that I'd put on that list - Ben McGrath's Riverman, based on his brilliant New Yorker piece "The Wayfarer."
