☆ The 10 Best Books of 2023
  + stars: | 2023-11-28 | by ( The New York Times Books Staff | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: 1 min
Every year, starting in the spring, we spend months debating the most exceptional books that pass across our desks: the families we grow to love, the narrative nonfiction that carries us away, the fictional universes we can’t forget. It’s all toward one goal — deciding the best books of the year. Things can get heated. We spar, we persuade and (above all) we agonize until the very end, when we vote and arrive at 10 books — five fiction and five nonfiction. In case you’d like even more variety, don’t miss our list of 100 Notable Books of 2023, or take a spin through this handy list, which features all the books we’ve christened the best throughout the years.

Rushdie’s new novel recounts the long life of Pampa Kampana, who creates an empire from magic seeds in 14th-century India. Her world is one of peace, where men and women are equal and all faiths welcome, but the story Rushdie tells is of a state that forever fails to live up to its ideals.

☆ A Guide to Cormac McCarthy’s Books
  + stars: | 2023-06-13 | by ( The New York Times Books Staff | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +1 min
Cormac McCarthy, who died on Tuesday at the age of 89, was renowned for stark and violent novels of the American South and West that were distinguished by a merciless vision and nearly biblical prose. Jerome Charyn’s description of “Suttree,” in The Times’s 1979 review, could well be about any of McCarthy’s novels. “It is personal and tough, without that boring neatness and desire for resolution that you can get in any well-made novel. Cormac McCarthy has little mercy to spare, for his characters or himself. … ‘Suttree’ is like a good, long scream in the ear.”These seven novels comprise the best of McCarthy’s work.

☆ A Brief Guide to Martin Amis’s Books
  + stars: | 2023-05-20 | by ( The New York Times Books Staff | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +1 min
Many readers consider this the best of Amis’s early novels. He’s a lout, he’s a slob, he’s a mess — and he is enormously fine company on the page. “The book’s dash and heft and twang serve a deeper energy," our reviewer, Veronica Geng, wrote. Our reviewer, Bette Pesetsky, called “London Fields” “a picaresque novel rich in its effects,” a “virtuoso depiction of a wild and lustful society. Friendly, readers learn, is the latest of the man’s pseudonyms: Years earlier, he was a Nazi doctor who escaped Europe for the United States.
