The shortlist for this year's inaugural 9th Art Award, given out in conjunction with the Edinburgh Book Festival, has been released. The book on the list are:

* Building Stories, Chris Ware (Jonathan Cape)
* Days Of The Bagnold Summer, Joff Winterhart (Jonathan Cape)
* The Gigantic Beard That Was Evil, Stephen Collins (Jonathan Cape)
* Naming Monsters, Hannah Eaton (Myriad Editions)
* The Nao of Brown, Glyn Dillon (SelfMadeHero)

Judging from approximately 50 entries were Paul Gravett, Hannah McGill, Adrian Searle, and Mary Talbot. The ceremony will be held this Sunday and hosted by Billy Kirkwood. I have a good feeling about the Dillon, although who knows?
