Hugo 2008 Nominees Announced!
Okay, this is probably old news by now, but better late than never! The Hugo Awards, one of the most prestigious and well-known awards for speculative fiction has announced the nominees for the 2008 edition of the awards. Go check it out at http://www.thehugoawards.org/?p=142.
I find it fascinating that Michael Chabon, one of the literati’s favourite sons, has been nominated for The Yiddish Policemen’s Union in the most recognizable spec fiction award. I wonder what Ursula Le Guin, or indeed, Ruth Franklin, thinks of the nomination.
