Orange You Glad...

that the 2009 Orange Prize longlist has been announced? Of course you are. This year, the list includes Ploughshares contributor Allegra Goodman and six of the longlisted books are first novels, which is way cool.

In other award news: Salvatore Scibona,
subject of Ploughshares Quickie Interview 34, has won the Young Lions Fiction Award for his novel The End. Congrats, Salvatore!
