It’s that time of year, and Zócalo can’t resist a Top 10 List. We’re taking this week easy, but we did pull together our favorite books of the year from among those we reviewed, presented in judicious alphabetical order. (And below, a favorite poem, a favorite event, and staff interviews.) Happy holidays, happy New Year, and we hope you have some time for some reading.
