Sakset frå Booker Prize sin e-post-formidling:

Here they are – the six ‘brilliantly written’ and ‘brilliantly human’ novels that make up this year’s Booker Prize shortlist.

As Roddy Doyle – Chair of the Booker Prize 2025 judges – says, the six books have two big things in common:

‘Their authors are in total command of their own store of English, their own rhythm, their own expertise; they have each crafted a novel that no one else could have written.

‘And all of the books, in six different and very fresh ways, find their stories in the examination of the individual trying to live with – to love, to seek attention from, to cope with, to understand, to keep at bay, to tolerate, to escape from – other people.’

Eg ser fram til å bli betre kjent med dei eg ikkje har lest, og vinnaren blir kåra 10. november!
