These are magicmolly's favorite books of the year, from an experimental memoir of domestic abuse to the one that broke 10,000 brains
Photo: Vulture If you follow Vulture literary critic Molly Young’s monthly newsletter, you know she reads a mind-boggling number of books each year. In 2019, these are the ones she loved the most.
8. How to Do Nothing by Jenny Odell Ah, the book that broke 10,000 brains. Or maybe fixed them. You be the judge. Odell’s polymathic joyride is the antivenin to a sea of dreadful self-improvement TED Talks and Medium manifestos touting the benefits of mindful attention. It’s about art, it’s about technology, it’s about birdwatching, it’s about garbage, it’s about you.
5. Oval by Elvia Wilk Oval is Don DeLillo’s White Noise updated for 2019 minus the satire of academia plus a layer of millennial discontent. Anja is a scientist who lives in a “socio-environmental living experiment” in Berlin, which means a campus of ecohouses that are poorly ventilated and smell like human waste. She works for a sinister company in a dystopian future where climate change is a daily hassle and art galleries have been converted into venues for initial coin offerings.
