			<description><![CDATA[ In this tiny corner of the journalistic universe, the year now drawing to a close was quiet but, in hindsight, unusually satisfying. With the exception of Scott McClellan's What Happened, no huge bestsellers crossed my desk, and that book, while it served a useful purpose in giving the public an inside look at the machinations and pervasive cynicism of the Bush White House, is scarcely one for the ages.

Of the 49 books reviewed in this space during 2008, I commend 15 to you for enlightenment, entertainment and other pleasures.<br clear="all"/><a href="http://ad.doubleclick.net/jump/wpni.rss/opinion/columns;pos=ad9;tile=9;ad=rss;sz=479x40;ord=4720112218277" target="_blank"><img src="http://ad.doubleclick.net/ad/wpni.rss/opinion/columns;pos=ad9;tile=9;ad=rss;sz=479x40;ord=4720112218277" border="0" vspace="5"></a> ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ Ten books on my list this year, four fiction and six nonfiction. It's not surprising that all but one of the nonfiction selections have to do with American history, as my interest in the subject grows ever greater as I, well, grow ever older. It's probably a bit more surprising that three of the four novels are set in the Spanish-speaking world and that two of these are translated from the Spanish, but though these novels have made my list strictly on merit, I'll admit to having been drawn to them in the first place for personal as well as literary reasons: I now live part of the year in Peru and am trying (at my age, it's a battle) to learn Spanish. ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ Three of the works of nonfiction that make my personal list of the year's best books, and one of the works of fiction, initially came to my attention because of a lifelong interest in race relations in the United States generally and in Southern history more specifically. These are matters about which I make no claims to virtue or moral purity, but they have been foremost in my mind ever since, as a boy of 9, I moved with my family from the Northeast to Southside Virginia. The sight of black convicts working in chain gangs by the roadside unnerved me, and so did the experience of being waited upon by black women who were older than my mother. ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ George Appo was a strange yet far from unappealing man. The son of a Chinese father and an Irish mother, he was "diminutive" and "slight." He had no education and was utterly out of place in polite society, yet in his way he was a success: "A pickpocket, confidence man, and opium addict, he lived off his criminal activities during his teenage years and much of his adult life. On successful nights during the 1870s and 1880s, he earned in excess of six hundred dollars pilfering the pockets of those around him, equivalent to the annual salary of a skilled manual laborer." Before finally going straight, he also made a bundle off a scam known as the "green goods game," which lured unsuspecting provincial rubes to New York, where they were swiftly and efficiently taken to the cleaners. ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ Late in the evening of July 7, 1957, Count Basie and his orchestra took the stage to wrap up that year's Newport Jazz Festival. The all-black band was introduced by a tall, skinny, crew-cut white guy with a voice so plummy as to border on unintentional self-parody. I was there and remember it vividly, but anybody can hear it on the album "Basie at Newport," and to this day almost everybody is likely to agree that the contrast between the Manhattanite voice and the down-home Kansas City band is just about too exquisitely hilarious to be true.<br clear="all"/><a href="http://ad.doubleclick.net/jump/wpni.rss/opinion/columns;pos=ad9;tile=9;ad=rss;sz=479x40;ord=4720112814920" target="_blank"><img src="http://ad.doubleclick.net/ad/wpni.rss/opinion/columns;pos=ad9;tile=9;ad=rss;sz=479x40;ord=4720112814920" border="0" vspace="5"></a> ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ Just about any adjective will do for William Weaks Morris, as a man and as a writer: bold, maddening, influential, self-destructive, charming, slippery, original, paradoxical, brilliant, childish, witty, accomplished and, of course, mercurial. That is the word Larry L. King uses in the subtitle of this portrait of his "old friend and mentor," and it is exactly the right one, for Morris was as mercurial as the most spectacular supernova. He soared into the heavens in 1967 as editor of Harper's magazine and author of a superb memoir, North Toward Home , then fell spectacularly to Earth in 1971 when he resigned from the position he loved so passionately. The remaining three decades of his life were mostly a struggle to regain what he had lost; he got only part of the way there. ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ In certain precincts occupied by certain members of the American intelligentsia, it has for some time been quite the fashion to ferret out racists in one's familial woodpile and then to write books about them. The ostensible purpose of these books is to provide intimate, confessional evidence of the degree to which racial prejudice has infiltrated every conceivable corner of American life. Their obvious if unstated purpose is to show how the (white) author has triumphed over his or her sordid ancestral inheritance to become a person of impeccable credentials on matters racial. Though all due modesty and claims of imperfection are expressed, the reader is expected to stand and cheer as, at book's end, the author's heroic achievement is revealed in full. ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ Bernard Malamud was one of the most accomplished and appealing American novelists of the postwar years. From The Natural (1952) to The Assistant (1957) to The Magic Barrel (1958) to A New Life (1961) to Dubin's Lives (1979) -- to mention only five of the more than a dozen books he published -- he not only established himself in the first rank of American writers but also took the country's literature in new and important directions. Along with his contemporary Saul Bellow and the younger (by two decades) Philip Roth, he portrayed and interpreted the Jewish experience in America as something unique and discrete while at the same time he helped establish that experience as, ultimately, more American than Jewish.<br clear="all"/><a href="http://ad.doubleclick.net/jump/wpni.rss/opinion/columns;pos=ad9;tile=9;ad=rss;sz=479x40;ord=4720113008924" target="_blank"><img src="http://ad.doubleclick.net/ad/wpni.rss/opinion/columns;pos=ad9;tile=9;ad=rss;sz=479x40;ord=4720113008924" border="0" vspace="5"></a> ]]></description>
