Copied from the Washington Post blog entry, which contains brief commentaries on each of the finalists:
Fiction: "Lord of Misrule," by Jaimy Gordon
Nonfiction: "Just Kids," by Patti Smith
Poetry: "Lighthead," by Terrance Hayes
Young people’s literature: "Mockingbird," by Kathryn Erskine
Lifetime achievement award: Tom Wolfe
Don't own any of these yet, but I think I shall investigate further (I have three of the five fiction finalists). Very curious about some of these winners, especially the Patti Smith one.
