Comments
I am thrilled that Brooks won this award for "March". I thought it was a terrific read. I have long been a fan of hers, and even use her book "Nine Parts of Desire" in a course that I teach. If anyone is interested in my review of "March", you can read it at http://www.americanbibliophile.com/?p=8
