NBCC autobiography finalist Sara Paretsky adds this to the NBCC Good Reads Spring 2008 list—recommendations from NBCC members, awards winners and finalists.
One novel that stands out for me is Melissa Benn’s “One of Us,” just out in England from Chatto & Windus. She’s Tony Benn’s daughter, and it’s an insider look at politics and power, but it’s a rich and heart-breaking novel in its own right. I can’t get it out of my mind.—Sara Paretsky
