They've announced that Post Mortem by Peter Terrin has been awarded the 2012 AKO Literatuurprijs, a leading Dutch literary prize (with the winner receiving €50,000).
(Bonus points, too, for the fact that they reveal all the titles entered/in the running -- see the full list here -- as all literary prizes should (indeed, it's hard to take a literary prize -- yes, I'm looking at you, Man Booker, (American) National Book Awards, etc. etc. -- that doesn't make this information public seriously).)
For more information about Post Mortem see the information page at the always useful Dutch Foundation for Literature.
Good timing, too: MacLehose Press have just brought out Terrin's The Guard; see their publicity page, or get your copy at Amazon.co.uk.
