The 2022 Booker Prize longlist has been announced. I wonder which of them, if any, will make it onto the Cricklereaders reading list? I’m personally delighted to see that Alan Garner has made it into the list. One of my favourite authors from childhood, The Weirdstone of Brisingamen and The Owl Service are two books that have stayed with me across the decades. I look forward to reading Treacle Walker.
