At Bookslut they've announced the shortlists for the Daphne Awards, "for the best book of 50 years ago, but really 51 years ago, because we are playing by National Book Award rules, and so that makes it 1964 instead of 1965".
(There don't seem to have been any real longlists, but the titles were apparently chosen from these.)
The only title under review at the complete review is Albert Angelo, by B.S.Johnson. (Among the titles that seem to have slipped past them: The Face of Another by Abe Kobo was probably worth considering.)
The non-fiction category looks stronger than fiction.
