National Book Award Finalists
In the non-fiction catagory Joan Didion is the early favorite with her The Year of Magical Thinking. She's been a darling of the Left and the most notable name in the catagory. Just behind is Jim Dwyer's and Kevin Flynn's 102 Minutes: The Untold Story of the Fight to Survive Inside the Twin Towers. The book's subject should garner judges' consideration. Other nominees are Bury the Chains: Prophets and Rebels in the Fight to Free an Empire's Slaves by Adam Hochschild, Jean-Jacques Rousseau: Restless Genius by Leo Damrosch, and Out of Eden: An Odyssey of Ecological Invasion by Alan Burdick.
