After being named the winner of the 2014 Man Booker Prize, Australian author Richard Flanagan has shot to the top of our bestsellers list for his ‘savagely beautiful and haunting’ sixth novel, The Narrow Road to the Deep North. Find out more about Flanagan’s win here.

Last week also saw the release of the new novel from Peter Carey, a fellow Australian Man Booker Prize winner!
