Guardian - Stiff competition on Bad Sex shortlist | News | Guardian Unlimited Books

Oh its our favorite literay award again......:-)

"David Mitchell was no doubt celebrating last night, when it was announced that he was in the running for the £25,000 Costa (formerly Whitbread) novel award with Black Swan Green. He may be less pleased this morning to find out that the same book has won him a place on the shortlist for the Literary Review Bad Sex award."
