Gifts and misses: publishers pick their books of 2016 | Books | The Guardian: "The book that made my year: David Szalay’s All That Man Is, a panEuropean novel replete with richly observed humanity that explores what it is to be a man in the 21st century. Rachel Cusk’s Transit – an outstanding novel about the meaning of suffering and how listening to the stories of others makes us who we are – was equally important and powerful. And at a time when we all need to laugh, as well as cry, Ian McEwan’s brilliant Nutshell brought us hilarity and premature wisdom from the womb."
