The International Booker Prize

Sakset frå The Booker Prizes (ekstern lenke):

The International Booker Prize is awarded annually for a single work of fiction, translated into English and published in the UK by a registered imprint. Both works of long form fiction and collections of short stories are eligible. Previously, the prize was awarded every two years for a writer's entire body of work.

Det ligger som regel eligible-liste på Goodreads, og den gir ein peikepinn på hvilke bøker som kan hamne på longlist, og eg leser gjerne eit par derifrå før lista blir annonsert. Eligible-perioden gjelder frå 01.05 - 30.04 (året etter).
