The Lost
by Daniel Mendelsohn
Buy on AmazonTherefore I'd have to pick "The Lost," by Daniel Mendelsohn. Nonfiction, but only incidentally. It's a memoir, a Holocaust story, a detective story, both a rumination on and an analysis of narrative technique… A book of the decade, easily, and likely a book of the century.
