In the second episode of our two Man Booker International Prize 2019 podcasts, host Joe Haddow heads to the Roundhouse in London for the glittering winner ceremony. There we hear the moment that Chair of the Judges Bettany Hughes made the announcement that Celestial Bodies had won.
We then go behind the scenes, where Joe catches up with shortlisted translators and judges ahead of the winner announcement.
Joe then sits down in the studio with this year’s winning author Jokha Alharthi and translator Marilyn Booth to see how they feel just 24 hours after the award. They discuss Jokha’s novel Celestial Bodies, the impact the prize will have on their careers and what Jokha’s upcoming projects are.
