When I think of all the books I read and loved this year — and there have been so many — I think the one I found most striking was Patrick DeWitt’s The Sisters Brothers. It was the sheer originality of the thing, the absolutely unique style and voice. It might fairly be described as a western for people who think they don’t like westerns.
Our friends at The Morning News have set the field for their 2012 Tournament of Books. In the battle of medial capitals, which DeWitt/deWitt will reign supreme?
