Exclusive Books Boeke Prize

Exclusive Books Boeke Prize

The Exclusive Books Boeke Prize, based in South Africa, is loosely modelled on the UK's Man Booker Prize. Although "boeke" is the plural of "book" in the Afrikaans language, the Boeke Prize has only been awarded to novels written in English.
