Final Larry Brown Novel Optioned

I was too ill to go into work today, but here’s a bit of news that has absolutely, totally, completely brightened my day. The Book Standard is reporting that the late Larry Brown’s final novel, The Rabbit Factory, has been optioned by Lionsgate.

And if the thought of a Larry Brown movie wasn’t exciting enough, the film adaptation was written by Thom Jones. Read the entire report here.

It’s just too bad that Larry’s not around to enjoy the attention…
