The Man Booker Prize 2011 shortlist has been announced.

The list of 13 has been narrowed down to 6.

Julian Barnes The Sense of an Ending (Jonathan Cape - Random House)
Carol Birch Jamrach’s Menagerie (Canongate Books)
Patrick deWitt The Sisters Brothers (Granta)
Esi Edugyan Half Blood Blues (Serpent’s Tail)

Irish writer Sebastian Barry did not make the shortlist. This suprised me as I liked his book and it was a favourite to win the prize
