Best American Essays Notable
by eatonhamilton
Thrilled to have an essay chosen as one of the notable essays of the year in Best American Essays 2016, ed Jonathan Franzen. I rarely write non-fiction so it’s a doubly pleasing honour for me. I once had a story chosen as a notable story in Best American Short Stories, and a poem will come out this year in Best Canadian Poetry, so the cross-genre’ing pleases me. Now, the substantial pleasure of reading these celebrated essays!

Congratulations, Jane! And also on Weekend.
I saw that your essay was included and felt so proud and excited for you. Then I re-read the essay – so stunning and so horrifyingly beautiful. Thank you thank you thank you.
Thanks, Katherine!
