The Booker Prize 2024 Longlist
The Booker Prize is one of the most prestigious literary awards presented in the English-speaking world and dates back to 1969. This year’s ‘Booker Dozen’ longlist includes exemplary works of long-form fiction that we can’t wait to share. This year’s selections feature “blackly comic page-turners, multigenerational epics, meditations on the pain of exile – plus a crime caper, a spy thriller, an unflinching account of girls’ boxing and a reimagining of a 19th-century classic.” Let’s dive into this year’s picks!
A multigenerational saga of Native American heritage and culture, Wandering Stars is Tommy Orange’s long-awaited follow-up to There There, tracking back in time and telling a story across centuries. Beginning with the Sand Creek Massacre, this book is a damning indictment of America’s treatment of its Native population.
