Our Pick of the Year: Illinois by Sufjan Stevens
Illinois joins folk songs with strings, brass, choirs and stories drawn from places, people and local history. Chicago, Casimir Pulaski Day and The Predatory Wasp of the Palisades Is Out to Get Us! move between public subjects and private memory. The dense arrangements never hide Sufjan Stevens's plainspoken writing.
