Twenty books published from November '05 to May '06 were named to the nominee list -- roughly termed the "the books you can't get past" list -- for the forthcoming prize. Books familiar to CR Readers include Manu Larcenet's Le combat ordinaire, ce qui est precieux and Judd Winick's Pedro et moi.
Bart Beaty tells me the Enki Bilal book listed is all the rage this Spring.
