Book2Book Wednesday 20 Jun 2012
They've announced that Julian Barnes wint
Europese Literatuurprijs 2012 — a 'best European'-book prize awarded by the
Dutch, with €10,000 going to the winning author, and €2,500 to the
translator(s). Since it's a book prize it is, of course, The Sense of an Ending
(well, Alsof het voorbij is, in Ronald Vlek's translation) that won the prize.
