Book prize winners revealed
Authors AS Byatt and John Carey have joined giants such as DH Lawrence in winning Britain's oldest book awards. The winners of the James Tait Black Memorial Prizes have been announced by best-selling crime writer Ian Rankin at the Edinburgh International Book Festival. The prizes are awarded annually by the School of Literatures, Languages and Cultures at the University. I am excited and delighted to win the James Tait Black Prize. It is a very distinguished and long-established award and I am happy to be amongst its list of winners. And I am also happy to have been chosen amongst such a strong and varied shortlist.
