National Book Award Winners: Fiction
Bests and worsts — 5 years ago
I haven’t read very many of these, but out of those I have read, I thought some were amazing and the fact that some won amazed me!
My favorites: “Spartina” and “White Noise”
My head-scratchers: “In America” and “The Corrections”
Those of you who are working on this list, what do you think? What are your favorites? Which ones were picked because the jury realized they hadn’t read any of the finalists? Or why am I totally wrong about the ones I thought were terrible?
