This, ladies and gentlemen, may be the BEST book giveaway EVER. Yep. Thanks to the lovely people at
Random House, I have four (count 'em - 4!) books to give away to one lucky winner. We are celebrating the 35th anniversary of the
National Book Award win for
Going After Cacciato by
Tim O'Brien with four brand-new reissues:
Going After Cacciato, If I Die In a Combat Zone, Box Me Up and Ship Me Home, Northern Lights and
Tomcat in Love.

Although a Minnesota native, we happily claim O'Brien as a transplanted Texan - he's been teaching at
Texas State University in San Marcos since 2003. He is probably best known for
The Things They Carried (which was my introduction to this author almost 25 years ago). If you aren't familiar with his work you can check out my profile of the author
here. An update to that profile: In June 2013, O'Brien was awarded the $100,000
Pritzker Military Library Literature Award.

I've always meant to read The Things They Carried and have never gotten around to it. Now it's on the top of my 2014 reading list.
