Book Awards Challenge II
Posted on June 14, 2008 in Books
I am not even finished the first one, but here it goes: Book Awards Challenge II. It will run from August 1, 2008 through June 1, 2009. 10 Books in 10 Months. Here is my really tentative list.
The Poisonwood Bible by Barbara Kingsolver (ABBY)
Bel Canto by Ann Patchett (Orange Prize, PEN/Faulkner)
The God of Small Things by Arunhdahti Roy (Booker)
The Complete Poems and Plays by T. S. Eliot (Nobel)
Possession by A. S. Byatt (Booker)
Midnight’s Children by Salman Rushdie (Booker)
Beloved by Toni Morrison (Pulitzer)
The Known World by Thomas P. Jones (Pulitizer)
Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell by Susanna Clarke (Hugo)
And I will fill in with Newbery award winners and the like. Too difficult to predict these things.
