The 2018 Man Booker International Prize Longlist
Earlier today the longlist for the 2018 Man Booker International Prize was announced. I’ve read a couple of them and have others on my list. Over at The Mookse and the Gripes Goodreads group, there is already a good amount of discussion (here), so I recommend checking the list out and joining in that conversation.
