i rarely do this but thought that it would be interesting to consider the past year and compile a best of list for 2010. The items haven’t necessarily found the light of day in 2010 more that this was the year i encountered them or in the case of the music found itself on repeat play on the ipod.
Book, fiction – The Road by Cormac McCarthy or Zeitoun by Dave Eggers also this was the year i found Robert Harris so the Cicero trilogy is up there.

Podcast - in our time – if I had to pick one it might be Daoism or maybe Logic
Music, track – women of the Ghetto by Marlena Shaw or reach you by Engine-EarZ Experiment ft Lena Cullen
Music, album – The Man Machine – Kraftwerk has been the sound track to 2010.
