[close] Working through the Man Booker Prizes

[close] Forum for spirited and convivial discussion of fiction from around the world, with particular though not exclusive focus on 20th and 21st century fiction recognized in US, UK, international, and other nation-specific prizes. Rules: Don't troll. If your post is primarily to provoke, please think twice before posting, and then don't post it. If your post is secondarily to provoke, think twice, and then don't post it. Be considerate of others. I hope that there are plenty of disagreements on here, as reasoned passion makes things interesting. However, do not be rude, obnoxious, or abusive. Be passionate in good faith. Ad hominem attacks will not be tolerated. Defend, but don't be overly defensive. While ad hominem attacks will not be tolerated, please distinguish the difference between someone attacking you and someone arguing with you; they are different. Do your best to not take differences of opinion personally. Do not feed trolls. Ignore, and instead PM a moderator.
