The shortlist for the Women's Prize for Fiction has been announced, with Arundhati Roy and Ece Temelkuran among the six writers in the running.
Founded in 2023 to help redress the historic gender imbalance in nonfiction prizes, after a study found that only 35.5 per cent of winners across major UK nonfiction awards over the previous decade were women, the award celebrates excellence, originality and accessibility in narrative non-fiction.
