Many are talking about American Dervish, the Ayad Akhtar novel that has already sold in close to two dozen countries and is, I suggest in my review for the Chicago Tribune, set to gain the popular momentum of The Help.
You can find my thoughts here.
Thanks to Elizabeth Taylor for trusting me with the book.

Yes, I can see how this may be "The Help" of this year--it doesn't have enough nuance for my taste.
