The Man Booker Prize Shortlist was announced on September 9. David Mitchell whose new book The Bone Clocks was considered a front-runner, is surprisingly not on the list of finalists. Two Americans–Joshua Ferris and Karen Joy Fowler–are both in contention. It is the first year that the prize has been open to writers from the United States.
