Guys—young guys, cool guys—started dressing like their grandfathers. Voluntarily. Most fashion trends feel emergent, something unpredictable that bubbles up from the soup of culture and life. This one was much simpler than that: It was beamed in. Or, more precisely, it was carried in by the apparatus of what would soon be known as "premium" cable. The Mad Men look—skinny ties, gray suits, perfectly creased pocket squares—was inescapable.

And what could roar louder than a glass of champagne emboldened by sugar and bitters? This is one of those old-as-bones cocktails that never loses its glitz and glamour. It'll keep you floating through parties to celebrate the end of this confusing, infuriating decade. By adding a sugar cube instead of loose sugar to the brut in the flute, you'll get a more persistent stream of bubbles rising through the drink, well past the toll of midnight.

(That's why we here at Esquire refused to complete the assignment as directed and chose eleven.) But in all seriousness: how to winnow thousands of worthy books down to the select few that shone the brightest? As we navigated the selection process, we spoke at length about the benchmarks we felt these books should meet. They should, of course, sing on a stylistic level, with finely crafted prose and imaginative structure. They should move us, carry emotional heft, shake us to our cores. They should not just challenge the limits of what literature can do and be, but challenge received wisdom about the world we live in--push us toward some greater understanding of the shared human experience. They should change us and change the world simultaneously, leaving room in their wake for like-minded writers to carry on the good work.
