The Orange Prize for Fiction 2010 shortlist
Rosie Alison The Very Thought of You
Alma Books
Barbara Kingsolver The Lacunahttp://www.orangeprize.co.uk/show/feature/orange-2010-BK-lacuna
Faber and Faber
Attica Locke Black Water Rising
Serpent’s Tail
Hilary Mantel Wolf Hall
Fourth Estate
Lorrie Moore A Gate at the Stairs
Faber and Faber
Monique Roffey The White Woman on the Green Bicycle
Simon and Schuster
This is the second time I've had a friend on the shortlist; the other one was AW's Patricia Wood -- was it only last year?
This time it's Monique. I loved her book and reviewed it for Caribbean Beat. But I think it probably won't beat stars like Hilary Mantel's and Barbara Kingsolver.
Have you read any of them?
