Book nominees - 2019

An interesting line up. Atwood's book, The Testaments, a sequel to the Handmaid's Tale, is not even on the shelves yet. For me, some familiar names: Deborah Levy, Salman Rushdie, Kevin Barry, Jeanette Winterson. Enough here to keep me reading all winter. 

The underlined titles should give a link to a New York Times Review.
