Posted on March 25, 2010
The Booker Prize Foundation is going back forty years to award a book published in 1970, a year that never had a Booker Prize winner. The shortlist for the Lost Booker Prize has been announced.
Here is the list:
- The Birds on the Trees by Nina Bawden
- Troubles by J. G. Farrell
- The Bay of Noon by Shirley Hazzard
- Fire From Heaven by Mary Renault
- The Driver's Seat by Muriel Spark
- The Vivisector by Patrick White
This Lost Booker Prize is a one-off prize to honor books published in 1970, which missed out on the opportunity to win the Booker Prize.
