Celebrated British author M. John Harrison has been awarded the prestigious Booker Prize for his compelling novel, The End of Everything. At 81 years old, Harrison makes history as the oldest winner in the award’s storied timeline, taking home the trophy alongside a 50,000-pound cash prize in London. Praised by the literary jury for its intellectually challenging yet ultimately hopeful exploration of a transformed, surreal British society, the novel caps off nearly six decades of remarkable literary output from the veteran writer.
