[Update, June 14, 2006: The Master has won the Impac prize, the world's richest literary award. Sigh... In the interest of reiterating how bad I thought that book was, and how good Author, Author is, I have re-posted my reviews of both books.]
This literary year has seen two major novels, by authors from England and Ireland, examining Henry James and parts of his later life. The first (Colm Toibin's The Master, which I found to be little more than a literary fart), has, as of this writing, been shortlisted for the Booker prize.
