Exciting news came from New York this weekend, where the National Book Critics Circle Award Finalists were announced.
Vivian Gornick’s The Men in My Life (Boston Review/The MIT Press) was selected as one of the finalists in the criticism category. The winners will be announced on March 12th at the New School in NY.
The National Book Critics Circle, founded in 1974, is a non-profit organization consisting of more than 900 active book reviewers who are interested in honoring quality writing and communicating with one another about common concerns.
