National Book Awards announced; no love for going round and round in circles

The National Book Awards were announced last night. Richard Powers took home the fiction award for The Echo Maker. I haven't read it yet but I plan on reading it because I'm a cheap scenester lit-whore. Assuming things work out like they did last year, with William T. Vollmann and Europe Central, I figure I'll be adding Powers to my list of authors I'm obsessed with.

Check out all the winners here.
