The shortlist for the £40,000 price has been announced today:

10:04 by Ben Lerner (Granta)
All My Puny Sorrows by Miriam Toews (Faber)
Dept. of Speculation by Jenny Offill (Granta)
Dust by Yvonne Adhiambo Owuor (Granta)
Family Life by Akhil Sharma (Faber)
How to Be Both by Ali Smith (Hamish Hamilton)
Nora Webster by Colm Tóibín (Viking)
Outline by Rachel Cusk (Faber)

Personally, I'm delighted to see Ali Smith on the shortlist - no surprise since How To Be Both was one of my favourite books of last year, and she's my favourite author. :D
