Man Booker Prize Shortlist announced

September 17th 2006 06:15
The shortlist for the 2006 Man Booker Prize has been announced. Many booklovers try to read as many of these as they can get their hands on each year. Reading books from the shortlist for an award as prestigous as this one is a safe bet. Even if parts of the novels (such as all of the titles), aren't that appealing, the reader can be assured that they're going to be well written.

This is a UK award and Kate Grenville and MJ Hyland are both Australian, which is unusual.

The winner will be announced on the 10th of October.

The Inheritance of Loss - Kiran Desai


The Secret River - Kate Grenville

Carry Me Down - MJ Hyland

In the Country of Men - Hisham Matar

Mother’s Milk - Edward St Aubyn

The Night Watch - Sarah Waters
