And the winners are ...

... the LA Times's 2008 Book Prize Winners and Finalists. (Hat tip, Dave Lull.)

Dave points out the winner of the poetry prize is Frank Bidart, whose Watching the Spring Festival I reviewed for the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette. Dave sends along the review, noting that the title of the book is never mentioned (the Inquirer always lists the book, author, etc. above the review, so I got out of the habit of mentioning the title of books I was reviewing): Remembering, reconnecting, Bidart reveals himself.
