The Best American Magazine WritingThis year's Best American Magazine Writing features outstanding writing on contentious issues including incarceration, policing, sexual assault, labor, technology, and environmental catastrophe.

This year's Best American Magazine Writing features outstanding writing on contentious issues including incarceration, policing, sexual assault, labor, technology, and environmental catastrophe. Selections include Paul Ford's ambitious "What Is Code?" (Bloomberg Businessweek), an innovative explanation of how programming works, and "The Really Big One," by Kathryn Schulz (The New Yorker), which exposes just how unprepared the Pacific Northwest is for a major earthquake. Joining them are Meaghan Winter's expos of crisis pregnancy centers (Cosmopolitan) and a chilling story of police prejudice that allowed a serial rapist to run free (the Marshall Project in partnership with ProPublica). Also included is Shane Smith's interview with Barack Obama about mass incarceration (Vice).

Other selections demonstrate a range of long-form styles and topics across print and digital publications. The imprisoned hacker and activist Barrett Brown pens hilarious dispatches from behind bars, including a scathing review of Jonathan Franzen's fiction (The Intercept). "The New American Slavery" (Buzzfeed) documents the pervasive exploitation of guest workers, and Luke Mogelson explores the purgatorial fate of an undocumented man sent back to Honduras (New York Times Magazine). Joshua Hammer harrowingly portrays Sierra Leone's worst Ebola ward as even the staff succumb to the disease (Matter). And in "The Friend," Matthew Teague's wife is afflicted with cancer, his friend moves in, and the result is a devastating narrative of relationships and death (Esquire). The collection concludes with Jenny Zhang's "How It Feels," an unconventional meditation on the intersection of teenage cruelty and art (Poetry).

Perfect Makeup Organizer
Color: Green-Large
I love it! Big enough for everything. Plenty of compartments. Drawers move easily. It took some time to decide which one to get. So glad I got this one. And I love the color. Price was good too. Very happy with this purchase.

Absolutely PERFECT.
Color: Black-Large, Color: Black-Large
I’m absolutely floored by this organizer. Personally I think the quality is great, it’s sturdy and the drawers are easy to open. There’s so much space, more than I thought - the drawers are the entire depth of the organizer and the slots are all large enough to fit a bunch of products. And it’s not even that pricey. It’s a little bigger and heavier than expected, so if you’re looking for something more compact then you won’t want this, but for me it’s just what I needed. It has room for all of my skincare, makeup, beauty tools, even essentials like contact lenses. And the best part is it’s so spacious that I have room left over, which means I have an excuse to buy more makeup 😉
