Full description
Save £23.96 when you buy all five books on the 2011 First Book award shortlist. The four novels and one non-fiction title that make up the list are all utterly brilliant reads from the literary stars of the future. From Siddhartha Mukherjee's magnificent, beautifully written biography of cancer to Stephen Kelman's Booker-shortlisted portrait of Harrison, a young Ghanaian boy teetering on the brink of manhood, there's something here for every reader. The full shortlist is: The Emperor of all Maladies by Siddhartha Mukherjee Pigeon English by Stephen Kelman The Submission by Amy Waldman Down the Rabbit Hole by Juan Pablo Villalobos The Collaborator by Mirza Waheed
