No Home Cooking Here

You might have thought Ward Just had the home-court advantage at TMN's Tournament of Books, but Chicago's very own Jessa Crispin (of Bookslut.com) opted for Cloud Atlas over Just's An Unfinished Season which, incidentally, I'll start reading tomorrow morning, having just finished the first book of James T. Farrell's Studs Lonigan trilogy.

With my sentimental favorite having been eliminated from the tournament, I'm now pulling for Philip Roth.

Cloud Atlas over An Unfinished Season? What has she been smoking!

I'm not sure what her recreational herb of choice is. But I read the first few chapters of An Unfinished Season this morning and it's very good, and borderline-terrific.
