They've announced the winners of the Bord Gáis Energy Irish Book Awards (though not, sigh, at the official site, last I checked ...).
Ronan McGreevy has the run-down in the Irish Times, in Heaney honoured at book awards.
The 'Irish Novel of the Year' went to Mistaken by Neil Jordan; get your copy at Amazon.co.uk, or pre-order at Amazon.com.
My favorite category ? Definitely: 'Best Irish Published Book of the Year' -- though I'm disappointed there's not a corresponding award for the 'Best Irish Unpublished Book of the Year'.
