The long list for the Man Booker Prize 2014 was announced yesterday...Both David Mitchell (The Bone Clocks) and Joseph O' Neill (The Dog) have been listed!!
David Mitchell will be at Mountains to Sea dlr Book Festival 2014 on Friday 12th with John Boyne. We also have Joseph O'Neill at the Pavilion on Wednesday 24th September as part of our autumn dlr Library Voices series - see http://www.paviliontheatre.ie/events/on/2014-09-24.
Plus Karen Joy Fowler appeared last March for dlr Library Voices.
What with Eleanor Catton winning the Booker last year - and she appeared at Mountain to Sea 2013 - we are wondering can we do it again!

This is definitely going on my best of the year list and I obviously enjoyed it very much, but wanted to say if you weren't a fan of Cloud Atlas, then you may not like this one either. But if you were a fan, well then you need to read this.
