"Fergus Barrowman travels to Frankfurt next week for the annual
Book Fair. Fergus will be touting VUP's wares before heading over to London for
the Man Booker Prize which is announced on Tuesday 15 October, 9.45pm, (London
time). The
Luminaries continues to dominate the NZ Bestsellers list. We
wish Eleanor Catton our very best for an excellent night out. We've heard
rumours Ms Catton's attire for this formal event features gold stars." - VUP
Footnote:
The Bookman will also be in the audience at The Guildhall for the Man Booker Prize Dinner and will be reporting on the blog from London. This will be my second Man Booker Prize Dinner having been there previously in 2007 when Lloyd Jones was short-listed for Mister Pip.
Looking forward to you tweeting the ceremony Graham. Brilliant idea.
ReplyDeleteI'll just have to sort time zones out. I guess it starts, there, 7.00pm or so on the 15th?
Reception at 6.30pm. Dinner 7.30pm Winner announcement 9.45pm. Winner to be broadcast on BBC News across radio, television and online. And The Bookman will tweet.
