Elliot was just reading Loving Bobby. I know that The Things They Carried was in the round also (2nd place I think). Elliot was reading How to watch your brother die in poetry.

does anyone know what the hurricane katrina piece was? because in semis at cfls for oi (prose) i did voices from the storm, and one of the judges asked me the name and author of the book- which is nonfiction. i thought i was being challenged, but he said no, just for my team. the book had just come out and he was from MN. curious to see if he used it.
