Here Is the Longlist for the 2015 National Book Award

The longlist for the 2015 National Book Award in fiction was published on Thursday, completing this week’s round of announcements that also revealed selections in non-fiction, poetry and literature for young readers.

The fiction list includes three story collections (Refund, Fortune Smiles, Honeydew) and two debut novels (The Turner House, Did You Ever Have a Family).
