The Man Booker Prize

The Man Booker Prize for Fiction is awarded every year for a novel written by a writer from the
Commonwealth or the Republic of Ireland and it aims to represent the very best in
contemporary fiction. The prize was originally called the Booker-McConnell Prize, which was
the name of the company that sponsored it, though it was better-known as simply the ‘Booker
Prize’. In 2002, the Man Group became the sponsor and they chose the new name, keeping
‘Booker’.
Publishers can submit books for consideration for the prize, but the judges can also ask for
books to be submitted they think should be included. Firstly, the Advisory Committee give
advice if there have been any changes to the rules for the prize and selects the people who will
judge the books. The judging panel changes every year and usually a person is only a judge once.
Great efforts are made to ensure that the judging panel is balanced in terms of gender and
professions within the industry, so that a writer, a critic, an editor and an academic are chosen
along with a well-known person from wider society. However, when the panel of judges has been
finalized, they are left to make their own decisions without any further involvement or
interference from the prize sponsor.
The Man Booker judges include critics, writers and academics to maintain the consistent quality
of the prize and its influence is such that the winner will almost certainly see the sales increase
considerably , in addition to the £50,000 that comes with the prize.
