Booker Prize 2023: Ireland's Paul Lynch wins with Prophet Song
By Charlotte GallagherCulture correspondent
The 2023 Booker Prize has been awarded to Prophet Song, a dystopian Vision of Ireland in the grips of totalitarianism.
It was Written By Ireland's Paul Lynch , 46, marking the First Time he has won the prestigious Fiction Writing prize.
Set in Dublin, it tells The Story of A Family grappling with a terrifying new world in which the democratic norms they are used to begin to disappear.
Lynch said Prophet Song was inspired by the Syrian war and refugee crisis.
The Book is Lynch's fifth and he spent Four Years working on it. He started writing it just before his son was born and, by The Time he finished, his boy was able to ride a bike.
Head judge Esi Edugyan said The Panel " sought a winning novel that might speak to The Immediate moment while also possessing the possibility of outlasting it".
She added: " In these troubled times, we sought a novel with a guiding Vision - a book to remind us that We Are More Than ourselves, to remind us of All That is worth saving. "
