Hello Gentle Reader
The Booker Prize 2012 winner is a mark on history for two reasons. One it is the only third person to have been awarded the prize twice; and also the first woman to be awarded the award twice. However it is also a disappointing victory in my opinion. As if the award itself has become a literary good ol'boys club, where new talent and independent authors and publishers are ignored by more established authors. Hilary Mantel won this year's award -- for a second time; with her novel "Bring Up The Bodies," a sequel to her previous Man Booker Prize "Wolf's Hall."
