Are these really the best six books written in the last 40 years?



booker203.jpgOn Newsnight Review this Friday we'll be discussing the Best of the Booker shortlist. Six books - all of them winners of the Booker prize - have been chosen by a panel of judges. The winner will be decided by a public vote.

You can post your reviews of any or all of the books here, and tell us which you're backing and why. Or do you think there are other books that should have been included?

John Mullan, who helped draw up the list, will be on Friday night's panel along with best-selling author Kate Mosse and the academic and writer Sarah Churchwell. You can read extracts from all six books .


NB: A reminder that only British and Commonwealth writers qualify for the Booker prize.
