Uk Panel´s Choice - Autumn 2011

Panels are usually formed by six industry experts, amongst which there are publishers, translators, critics, booksellers, and a permanent representative from the British Centre for Literary Translation (BCLT). Panellists change every edition to allow as many people as possible to be part of the project. The panel meets twice at our offices in central London. Their decisions are based on their knowledge, experience and intuition, as well as on reader’s reports. Members of the panel take their decisions with total independence.

The Autumn/Winter panel was formed by: Rosalind Harvey (translator), David Mantero (bookseller, Stanford’s), James Tennant (editor, Dalkey Archive), Maya Jaggi (journalist and literary critic), Jüry Gabriel (publisher, Dedalus) and Gary Mckeone (literary consultant, representing BCLT).

The readers who have written reports for us are Ollie Brock, Daniel Hahn, Lise Jones, Margaret Jull Costa, Rosalind Harvey, Christina MacSweeney, Laura McGloughlin, Nick Caistor, Peter Bush, Catherine Forrest, Kirsty Hooper, Tom Bunstead, Nelly Hermitant, Lorna Scott Fox, Kit Maude, Chris Moss, Catherine Forrest, and Anna Marjatta Milsom

We would like to thank the members of the panel and the readers for their invaluable contribution to the Autumn/Winter 2011 edition.
