NATIONAL BOOK AWARDS

The National Book Award Finalists for 2016 were announced on October 6th. Every year the National Book Foundation selects five finalists in four categories: fiction, nonfiction, poetry, and young people’s literature. The award was begun in 1936, but soon was halted due to WWII. It was resumed in 1950 under a restructured organization as an annual event. Titles submitted for award consideration are reviewed by a panel of judges, who include authors, librarians, critics, booksellers, and others. All finalists receive a $1000 prize, a medal, and become members of the National Book Foundation. Each category winner will receive a $10,000 prize and a bronze sculpture.

We would like congratulate all of this year’s chosen authors on this momentous achievement! See the complete NBA 2016 Finalists list by visiting www.nationalbook.org. The winner in each category will be revealed on November 16th, but until then we suggest reading the following finalists:
