The NH Dublin Committee has chosen its nominees for the 2009 International IMPAC Dublin Literary Award:
- The Beautiful Things That Heaven Bears by Dinaw Mengestu
- Septembers of Shiraz by Dalia Sofer
- The Archivist’s Story by Travis Holland
The Dublin Award is an annual literary prize managed by Dublin City Libraries, on behalf of Dublin City Council (Dublin, Ireland, that is.) The award recognizes an outstanding novel written or translated into English. Libraries from all over the world -- including the NH State Library -- nominate books for the award. If you're looking for a good book to read, check out the Dublin "longlist" for 2008. If you want to get involved in choosing our nominee for the 2010 award contact the NH Dublin committee chair.
