Open Vote • December 2012
Help us choose the December 2012 selection to read for the MR Literary Club! The poll will be open for two days.
The vote is multiple choice. You may vote for as many or as few as you like. A discussion thread will begin shortly after a winner is chosen. In the event of a tie, there will be a one-day non-multiple-choice run-off poll. In the event that the run-off poll also ends in a tie, the tie will be resolved in favour of the selection that received all of its initial nominations first. Select from the following works: Norwegian Wood by Haruki Murakami Spoiler:
The Silent Steppe by Mukhamet Shayakhmetov Spoiler:
The Brief Wondrous Life Of Oscar Wao by Junot Diaz Spoiler:
Year of Wonders by Geraldine Brooks Spoiler:

I voted for Year of Wonder. I haven't a particularly strong preference for one or more of the other three and would be equally happy with any of them.

It's a tie! Only fourteen voters for, what I thought, was a very strong selection of interesting books.

Run-off. Interesting; only one person voted for both and one voted for neither. A near perfect split. If we don't get a new voter, it's down to spindlegirl's preference unless Synamon forces another tie (in which case it's Norwegian Wood).
Assuming of course everyone revotes and no one changes his mind. |

And we have a tie! That was an exciting horserace to watch - first Norwegian Wood in the lead, then Year of Wonders pulls ahead, then they draw even by the end.
The one-day run-off vote will be up shortly. |
