Man Booker International Prize

The Man Booker International Prize is awarded once every two years and recognises one author for their achievement in fiction. Seperate from the Man Booker Prize for Fiction, which awards one book annually, the International Prize rewards one writer's continued achievements. The list of contenders for 2007 has just been announced and includes one of my favourites - Australian author Peter Carey. There is also a forum where anyone can have their say on the contenders.
