To celebrate the Booker Prize’s 40th anniversary, you are invited to choose your favorite novel in a “Best of the Booker” competition. Nominees include all past Booker winners, including Indian novelist Arundahati Roy, who took the prize in 1997 for The God of Small Things. The Man Booker Prize for Fiction recognizes the best novel of the year in English by a citizen of the Commonwealth or the Republic of Ireland. “The Best of the Booker” will honor the best novel to have won the prize since its start in 1969. Their shortlist will be announced in May, and public voting will begin via the Man Booker Prize website. A complete list of Booker winners can be found on the Times online
