Building Base Knowledge II cont'd

Question 2;
In Early Word I think I will look at the coming soon- Season Previews  to become better acquainted with what is coming and can formulate some possible read alikes for several of the books that might be popular.


Question 3:  After looking at Coming Soon- Season Previews on Early Word, I've chosen the book   Detroit: an American autopsy by Charles Le Diff .  Literary expression and language is the strong appeal of this book along with the  setting of a place of power that has crumbled and has hope of rebuilding.  It has philosophical appeal as it tries to uncover the whys of what has happened to the journalist's home town.  If you liked When a crocodile eats the sun by Peter Godwin, Detroit : an American autopsy might appeal to you.  It is written by a journalist that goes back to Zimbabwe to visit his aging father and sees the devastation of  his childhood homeland because of corruption.

Detroit  is expected to be popular because of the author's literary style and language.  It addresses concerns of the American people and gives possible hope.
