Terrific news comes ...

... by way of The Elegant Variation: The Kiriyama Prize has gone to Luis Alberto Urrea's The Hummingbird's Daughter. Urrea is a fine writer and a classy guy. I reviewed his nonfiction book The Devil's Highway, a beautifully written and deeply moving piece of reportage. Everybody should read it before forming an opinion regarding the immigration issue.

  1. Caroline Moorehead's HUMAN CARGO is also excellent, on this issue.
