@waltscottprize @BloomsburyBooks @canongatebooks @ChattoBooks @PenguinRandomCA @HarvillSecker @johnmurrays @TuttleBooks @PenguinUKBooks Mmm, hard as I haven't read all of them. These I've read - The House of Doors by Tan Twan Eng Absolutely & Forever by Rose Tremain A New Life by Tom Crewe Then I'd pick... My Father's Country by Joseph O'Connor For Thy Gt Pain... by Victoria MacKenzie Cuddy by Benjamin Myers
More stuff to read!
Not long until our shortlist is revealed -- which books from these 12 do you think will be in the final running for the £25,000 #WalterScottPrize for Historical Fiction 2024?
I reviewed Tan Twan Eng's 'The House of Doors' @TheTLS and have read Joseph O'Connor's 'My Father's House.' Both are brilliant. If I had to choose it would be 'The House of Doors' for its luminous and lyrical prose. #histfic #WalterScottPrize

@waltscottprize @BloomsburyBooks @canongatebooks @ChattoBooks @PenguinRandomCA @HarvillSecker @johnmurrays @TuttleBooks @PenguinUKBooks #Cuddy from the marvellously talented Mr Myers. Wishing you luck @BenMyers1 🤞🏼
@waltscottprize @BloomsburyBooks @canongatebooks @ChattoBooks @PenguinRandomCA @HarvillSecker @johnmurrays @TuttleBooks @PenguinUKBooks Does anyone know what date the shortlist will be announced? I can't find out anywhere.
@waltscottprize @BloomsburyBooks @canongatebooks @ChattoBooks @PenguinRandomCA @HarvillSecker @johnmurrays @TuttleBooks @PenguinUKBooks Tom Crewe or Joseph O’Connor. @OscarWildeUK
Off to @Lolwe_ to see the new issue. The wait is always worth it. 👌
I read Tom Crewe's The New Life as a short story on Granta. I had no idea there was a book, and a historical novel for that matter. This is positivity!

@waltscottprize @BloomsburyBooks @canongatebooks @ChattoBooks @PenguinRandomCA @HarvillSecker @johnmurrays @TuttleBooks @PenguinUKBooks Great way to show the books! Well done.
@waltscottprize @methleybkgroup @BloomsburyBooks @canongatebooks @ChattoBooks @PenguinRandomCA @HarvillSecker @johnmurrays @TuttleBooks @PenguinUKBooks I’ve only read one, so can’t compare, but Cuddy by @BenMyers1 is a tour de force!
Having read four of these novels, I don’t envy the judges’ their task. Quality in abundance.
