On 9th March, the Baillie Gifford Prize announced the shortlist for its 25th anniversary Winner of Winners award, which will go to the book the judges think is the best of the previous winners of the Prize. Listen in as host Razia Iqbal talks to judges Jason Cowley and Sarah Churchwell about which books they chose, and what the process has been like so far. If this episode has piqued your interest, tune in over the next few months, when Razia will be talking to each of the shortlisted authors about how it feels to be selected for such a prestigious award, and how winning the Prize in the first place has changed their lives. The Winner of Winners will be announced at an event at the National Museum of Scotland in Edinburgh on the 27th April. This podcast is generously supported by the Blavatnik Family Foundation.
