This week the New Yorker is announcing the longlists for the National Book Awards. The categories are Young People’s Literature, Translated Literature, Poetry, Nonfiction, and Fiction. We’re concentrating on the big one today, the fiction longlist and there are ten books in the list.
It’s an eclectic selection featuring a range of authors, some already popular in our review section, others not. Without further ado, there are all ten books in the longlist with links to buy and links to reviews if we have them.
