So they handed out the Man Booker Prize for fiction earlier this week (see my mention), paying out £50,000, but now they've also announced the winner of a book prize where the winner gets some real cash -- €601,000 --, the Premio Planeta de Novela, which goes to Hombres desnudos, by Alicia Giménez-Bartlett, which beat out 485 other titles; see, for example, the El País report, Giménez Bartlett gana el Planeta con una obra sobre prostitución masculina.
Giménez-Bartlett is hardly unknown in the US/UK, with Europa Editions having brought out several of her Petra Delicado-books, see their author information page, or try, for example, Prime Time Suspect; get your copy at Amazon.com or Amazon.co.uk.
