The New York Times 
New York Times 10 Best Books of 2010 [EPUB ebook] 

This e-single features reviews of the 10 books, fiction and nonfiction, that The Times selected as the 10 Best Books of 2010. Each of the 10 is singularly excellent. Some of the authors are familiar names, others, less so. Ann Beattie and William Trevor, both masters of elision and omission, are able to animate whole universes in a few deft scenes, while Jennifer Homans, Siddhartha Mukherjee and Isabel Wilkerson have created sumptuous histories of subjects so large as to defy the normal limits of narrative.
