Man Booker International Prize Panel with music by Lail Arad

Join members of the Man Booker International Prize panel just days after the announcement of the shortlist of the competition that celebrates the best in international fiction. We’re on brand new territory tonight as, for the first time, the £50,000 prize will be awarded for a single work of translated fiction.

The event will feature prize administrator Fiammetta Rocco, chair of judges Boyd Tonkin and judge Daniel Medin, AUP professor. It will be chaired by Lucie Campos and will be introduced by a musical performance by superb singer-songwriter Lail Arad, to coincide with the release of her second record and her book of lyrics The Onion, with exclusive text from Lail and photographs by Flo Kohl.
