The winners of this year’s National Book Awards were just announced, and we’re celebrating the talented recipients across all five categories! We’re especially excited that Portland’s own Omar El Akkad won for his nonfiction book One Day, Everyone Will Have Always Been Against This. Psst… fiction finalist Megha Majumdar will be speaking at our Burnside location on December 3.
