Bob The Bookerer | The 2018 Booker Prize Shortlist- 5 Years On! @BobTheBookerer | Uploaded October 2023 | Updated October 2024, 4 hours ago.
Hello, I'm Bob, and as part of my project of reading all of the Booker shortlists, let's look back 5 years to the 2018 list!

Enjoy, and I will be covering more soon!

Books Mentioned:

00:00 Introduction and Background
04:35 Anna Burns- Milkman
09:54 Esi Edugyan- Washington Black
12:41 Daisy Johnson- Everything Under
15:28 Rachel Kushner- The Mars Room
17:25 Richard Powers- The Overstory
20:24 Robin Robertson- The Long Take
23:25 Shortlist Discussion

P.S. I realised only after uploading that Richard Powers had not won the Pulitzer by the time this shortlist was announced- that came after! Apologies for this!
