Popular-The Star Readers’ Choice Awards result [2nd update]
The result of the Popular-The Star Readers’ Choice Awards for 2013 was announced on 3 August. Sadly, Tan Twan Eng came in at second place in the fiction category. I was so hoping for him to win. Perhaps I was being biased, having not read the other books in the category to make a fair choice. But I was quite optimistic that he would win, with his book being shortlisted for the Man Booker Prize and won both the 2012 Man Asian Literary Prize and Walter Scott Prize for Historical Fiction.
The winner of the category was "King Of The Sea" by Dina Zaman. The book was a collection of short stories inspired by the author's hometown in Terengganu.
Maybe I'll buy a copy. If I like it, I might read her other book "I am Muslim" which is available at our mini library.
