The five shortlisted finalists have been announced, and Canadians are invited to pick their choice for who they think will win the Scotiabank Giller Prize.
In its sixth year, the "Guess The Giller" contest is now open with a chance to win a VIP trip for two to Toronto to attend the 2010 Scotiabank Giller Prize Gala, a high-profile event at the Four Seasons Hotel, Toronto.
"The Guess The Giller contest works to promote the finalists and the importance of Canadian literature by extending the reach of arts and culture in Canadian communities," said John Doig, Scotiabank Senior Vice-President Marketing. "We are proud to work with the Rabinovich family in providing a chance for readers to put themselves in the Juror's chair and guess their choice for this years' Scotiabank Giller Prize winner."
