The Man Booker Prize and Reading Groups

The Man Booker Prize is guaranteed to inspire your reading group; whether it's the books that the judges have included on the shortlist or those that they have left out there is always something for readers to discuss.

Our Toolkit, downloadable from the link below, provides a range of ideas that will help your reading group get the most out of the opportunities created by the prize and will help members of your group to feel part of one of the world's most important and prestigious literary prizes.

To support and stimulate your groups' discussions, Reading Guides for each of the shortlisted titles will be available to download from 9th September onwards. Each guide provides an introduction to the authors, their books, starting points for discussion and ideas for extended reading.

Visit the library page for a range of other downloadable resources.
