Let The Games Begin

I hope you've been reading the titles in the Tournament of Books list.  The tournament starts tomorrow - 8 March.  Emma Straub is the judge and will select the first winner.  She has read the British Booker Prize winner, Julian Barnes’s Sense of an Ending, and the hyper-violent American debut, Donald Ray Pollock’s The Devil All the Time. There are interesting introductory remarks on The Morning News today.  We are excited about the tournament at Flyleaf.  Keep an eye on our events schedule for author readings and others associated with the event.
