The Kraus Project, by Jonathan Franzen


My review of The Kraus Project is up over at Escape Into Life. Turns out I have a more abiding Kraus connection than I first thought...

March: Book One, by John Lewis, Andrew Aydin, and Nate Powell at Escape Into Life

My selection over at Escape Into Life this week is the graphic novel March: Book One, which is an account of the first part of Congressman John Lewis's life, leading up to his role in the Civil Rights Movement. I was surprised, attempting to write it up at how much information had been gotten into  a short book. Even if you don't think of yourself as a comic book reader, you might want to give this one a shot.
