[\/fusion_title][fusion_text]<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Tonight, the Man Booker Prize winner was announced.<\/p>\n
Click\u00a0here<\/a>\u00a0to purchase on Amazon.com See Lee\u2019s review\u00a0here<\/a>.<\/p>\n Well, Lincoln in the Bardo<\/em>\u00a0is quite an accomplishment, if not one I ended up loving. I’m also not in love with the fact that this is the second year in a row this quintessentially British prize has gone to an American author, for a book that is very American (last year Paul Beatty’s\u00a0The Sellout<\/em> won).<\/p>\n Still, congratulations are in order, and I know many are going to be thrilled with this winner!<\/p>\n You should also check out the shortlist <\/a>and the longlist<\/a>.<\/p>\n [\/fusion_text][\/fusion_builder_column][\/fusion_builder_row][\/fusion_builder_container]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" A new Man Booker Prize winner has
