Just some FYI:

The 2009 Man Booker Prize for Literature is WOLF HALL by Hilary  
Mantel.  It's a historical novel set during the tumultuous politics of  
Henry VIII's reign.

The 2009 Nobel Prize for Literature has been awarded to Herta Muller.   
Born in Romania, Muller now lives in Germany.

The 2009 National Book Award nominees have been announced.  You can  
Google for them or look them up on amazon.com.  They look like a  
rather uneven bunch of prospects, however.  None as promising a read  
perhaps as WOLF HALL.

Hope some of you are getting to the Neustadt Festival events today and  
tomorrow.

Happy writing (or reading),
DC
