1,Best of the National Book Awards Fiction

庆祝美国国家图书奖成立60周年,将从历年的获奖小说中评选最佳之最佳,类似布克奖的Best of the Bookers(25周年和40周年两次都是Rushdie的《午夜的孩子》Midnight’s Children)。

2,借用A同学的口头禅“科技改变生活”,通过video conference足不出户宣传新书,并不稀奇,但可以同时给五洲四海的粉丝签名售书,这实在让人称奇。实现这一奇迹的工具叫Long Pen。今年9月,加拿大作家Margaret Atwood将用这个由她构想的远程签名工具,进行新作The Year of the Flood 的签名售书。
