It's just under 6 weeks until The Buried Giant by Kazuo Ishiguro is released, and to celebrate we're giving you the chance to WIN each of his backlist titles - and with three shortlisted for The Man Booker Prize for Fiction alongside a winner he has quite the collection!
For your chance to win A Pale View of Hills, tell us what award winning author you haven't read yet, and why you've still not done it!
We have five copies of Ishiguro's debut A Pale View of Hills up for grabs, while one of these lucky winners will also win a super advance copy of new book The Buried Giant!
In his highly acclaimed debut, A Pale View of Hills, Kazuo Ishiguro tells the story of Etsuko, a Japanese woman now living alone in England, dwelling on the recent suicide of her daughter. Retreating into the past, she finds herself reliving one particular hot summer in Nagasaki, when she and her friends struggled to rebuild their lives after the way. But then as she recalls her strange friendship with Sachiko - a wealthy woman reduced to vagrancy - the memories take on a disturbing cast.
*Entries close 10am (ADST) Tuesday 27 January, open to Aus/NZ residents only
