;void(0);){kind=link}
After three straight years of virtual awards ceremonies, the National Book Critics Circle returned to the New School in Manhattan on March 23, 2023 for an in-person presentation. The group’s awards are given each March, and honor literature published the previous year in six categories: Autobiography, Biography, Criticism, Fiction, Nonfiction, and Poetry.
Congratulations to our three winners, whose works were selected in voting by working book editors, reviewers, commentators and essayists—and also to our Finalists, and to their publishing teams.
