Juvenile Nonfiction

52 Books in 52 Weeks, it's called. The challenge is simple: read a book every week for a year.

46. Gilead.

Gilead - Marilynne RobinsonThis one battles Jonathan Strange, Shipler’s The working poor and Maine’s The preservationist for title of ‘Best Book I’ve Read All Year.’ A letter from an aging pastor to his young son in anticipation of his premature death, this is a quietly stunning meditation on how grace sneaks up on even those most acquainted with it. Good God, read it.

* Must you? Yes, you must.

Some things you should know.

Juvenile Nonfiction is Joshua Neds-Fox’s blog v.3, internetted lovingly to you from Detroit, Michigan.

I’m worth $1MM in prizes. I am without excuse.

I’ve redesigned this thing a mere two times. This is its third iteration. It’s using WordPress, for the first time. This theme was adapted from the standard, Kubrick. Border elements prefacing the ‘comments’ were graciously provided by Barrett Stanley, from his 100 Erased Lincolns.

Try joshua, here at neds-fox.com, via electronic mail, should you want to get in touch with me.

I hope you’re happy.
