Book2Book Wednesday 14 Oct 2015

A couple who set up a small London publishing firm in "a moment of madness" 30 years ago were celebrating today after one of their books won the Man Booker Prize.
Husband-and-wife team Novin Doostdar and Juliet Mabey snapped up A Brief History Of Seven Killings by Marlon James for Oneworld Publications on the strength of the first three chapters. They had already published his previous novel — their first foray into fiction.
