Booker Prize 2022 Longlist: Scottish author Graeme Macrae Burnet included in 13-strong longlist for prestigious literary award

After Billie Eilish and Paul McCartney became the youngest and oldest artists to headline Glastonbury earlier this year, the Booker Prize judging panel have followed suit with a longlist ranging from 20-year-old Leila Mottley to 87-year-old Alan Garner.

It also contains one of the shortest nominees, with Claire Keegan’s Small Things Like These coming in at just 116 pages – 16 less than Penelope Fitzgerald’s 1979 Booker-winner Offshore.
