Finally a post w/ some social significance beyond electronic media

The National Book Awards were announced today by famed Lawrence Ferlinghetti at City Lights Books in San Francisco. I'm most interested in reading Mark Z. Danielewski's novel Only Revolutions, for I remember hearing interesting reviews of his first novel House of Leaves. The article indicates that his latest novel is comprised of 2 parallel narratives one running front to back, the other back to front. I'm highly interested in learning more about modern narrative structures such as this. I love things that mess with traditional conventions.
