Around the World with the NBCC’s Good Reads

By NBCC

NBCC member Chuck Leddy reviews Drew Gilpin Faust’s “This Republic of Suffering,” which was at the top of the nonfiction long-list of the NBCC’s Good Reads in the Barnes & Noble Review.

If you haven’t seen it, check out Alex Ross’s blog/website for “The Rest is Noise,” which landed at #1 on the nonfiction list. It’s a great addition to the book.

In addition to writing novels in verse, Toby Barlow—whose “Sharp Teeth” landed on the poetry list—does a bit of blogging over at Huffington Post.

Haven’t heard of Steve Erickson’s Zeroville? Here’s a nice review by former National Book Award finalist Chris Sorrentino.
