Overview
The International Booker Prize has been celebrating the best international writers and translators of fiction since 2005. The International Booker Prize is awarded annually for a single book, translated into English and published in the UK or Ireland. The prize was initially a biennial award for a body of work, and there was no stipulation that the work should be written in a language other than English. In 2015, after the rules of the original Booker Prize expanded to allow writers of any nationality to enter - as long as their books were written in English and published in the UK - the International Prize evolved to become the mirror image of the English-language prize. Since then it has been awarded annually for a single book, written in another language and translated into English. Unlike the original Booker Prize, short stories are eligible for the International Booker Prize.
THIS LIST ONLY INCLUDES WINNERS FROM 2016 ONWARDS. This is because the award was giving to an author 2006-2015 and not a work.
This prize aims to encourage more reading of quality fiction from all over the world.
