The Orwell Prize for Political Fiction 2022
Selected by the Bookshop
The nine authors on the 2022 Political Fiction list are all first time Orwell Prize nominees, in the fourth year of The Orwell Prize for Political Fiction. As chair of judges Adam Roberts says, ‘What all these brilliant novels have in common, and what so impressed the judges, was the various ways they explored the politics of everyday life: personal, racial, linguistic, familial, environmental.’
