I’m so delighted to be able to let you know that Our Endless Numbered Days has been longlisted for the International Dublin Literary Award 2017. This award, previously called the IMPAC Award, is presented annually for a novel written in English or translated into English.

Novels are nominated by libraries in major cities throughout the world, and this year 147 have been put forward for the longlist. Five judges have the task of reading and deciding which books should make it onto the shortlist of 10, announced next April. The winner, who receives €100,000  (awarded to the author if the book is written in English, or if in English translation, the author receives €75,000 and the translator, €25,000) is announced next June.

It is such a long longlist, with so many amazing titles, that I am just happy that Our Endless Numbered Days has made it this far.

Click here to see all 147 nominations. I’ve only read 12, so that’s a lot of books being added to my ‘to be read’ list. Let me know how many you’ve read.

  7. Oh what fabulous news – congratulations! Very well deserved. Quite a few of the 147 on my TBR but yours and 2 others are all I’ve read so far… and somehow can’t imagine reading the other 144 by April so I’ll take a punt on you! Best of luck Claire x
