Two Booker Prize-winning authors this week - both IrishThere are two Booker Prize-winning authors here this week (both Irish), there’s self-help from a world famous celebrity, a memoir about the ravages of alcoholism, a novel about motherhood, marriage and desire, and a story of courage from a Holocaust survivor. Another superb novel about family scars that never really heal, from an author who can write family like nobody else. This evidence-based book guarantees the reader that if they invest some time in ‘emotional management’, they can live a happier life. Both authors share wisdom they have gleaned from their own lives, as well as witness statements from a number of more ornery human beans. As the author’s father was captured and shot, he begged Malka’s mother Rivka to ‘save the children’.
