3. I might be intrigued about looking at the possiblity of reading a book if it was a winner because it would've been chosen for a reason.

1. I am an avid reader2. No, I haven't heard of the Man Booker Prize.
3. I would be intrigued to read it if it had gotten the award because it would obviously be good if it got the prize.
Have read Amsterdam by McEwan and Wolf Hall by Mantel. And yes, seeing MBP-winner on the cover of a book would certainly engage my interest; from my limited experience w/ the prize-as-arbiter-of-quality, I'd say it's a fairly consistent marker.
