One thought on “2014 Scotiabank Giller Prize Longlist Announced”
How are the books considered for a prize chosen or collected? I would love to enter my book “We Don’t Talk About That” – An Amazing Story of Survival – but have no clue how to go about it. The book has incredible reviews (see http://www.giselleroeder.com/reviews) and has been called “a valuable piece of history, and should be placed next to ‘Anne Frank’s Diary’.
I woukld so very much appriciate your advise.
