They've announced the finalists for the Dayton Literary Peace Prize, in both the fiction and non categories.
The idea is for the nominated books to be the best from the past year: "that have led readers to a better understanding of other cultures, peoples, religions, and political points of view"
Looks like a pretty solid list -- though not a one is under review at the complete review (leading me to wonder whether I avoid books that might lead me: "to a better understanding of other cultures, peoples, religions, and political points of view"" ...).
The winners in both categories (and the two runners-up) will be announced on 24 September.
