Man Booker Prize
Bookerprisen blev etableret i 1968. Prisen på £50.000 uddeles en gang om året for en roman, skrevet af en forfatter bosiddende i et Commonwealth land eller i Republikken Irland. Dommerpanelet udvælges blandt Englands førende kritikere, forfattere og akademikere. Vindere og forfattere, hvis bøger er short-listed til Booker prisen, kan i romanens verden ikke få et bedre stempel. Alene en nominering til Booker prisen medfører anselig interesse og store salgstal.
