The Booker Prize longlist is here, featuring 13 powerhouse novels from seven countries, including heavyweights like Douglas Stuart and Marlon James—and a stunning lineup of 10 debut authors, three of them first-time novelists. With judges praising bold, boundary-pushing stories, this year’s list shines with global diversity: Chloe Aridjis could be the first writer of Mexican heritage to win, while Kenan Orhan might break new ground for Turkish heritage. At the other end of the spectrum, 81-year-old M John Harrison and 28-year-old Djamel White represent the oldest and youngest contenders. The shortlist drops September 22, with the winner announced November 9—literary fireworks ahead.
