Finalists for Canada’s Governor General’s Literary Award

October 14th, 2009 | Posted in Uncategorized | Leave a comment | Print This Post

In other literary news, the finalists for Canada’s Governor General’s Literary Award were announced today, and the list includes Michael Crummey’s Galore, which I didn’t really like.  Alice Munro is also on the list for her last book Too Much Happiness, which I will be reading and reviewing after getting the Giller Shadow Jury readings finished.  Other finalists are Annabel Lyon for The Golden Mean (also to be reviewed soon for the Giller Prize), Kate Pullinger for The Mistress of Nothing, and Deborah Willis for Vanishing and Other Stories.
