The 2022 Wingate Literary Prize has announced its short list of seven books.

There are four works of fiction and of three non-fiction, covering subjects ranging from Israel, the Holocaust and Jewish life, to politics, gender, family, friendship, love and loss.

The 2022 short list includes At Night’s End by Nir Baram, translated by Jessica Cohen, Letters to Camondo by Edmund de Waal, Judaism for the World by Arthur Green, To Be a Man by Nicole Krauss, The Ravine by Wendy Lower, The Last Interview by Eshkol Nevo, translated by Sondra Silverston and Ethel Rosenberg by Anne Sebba.

Now in its 45th year, the annual prize, worth £4,000 and run in association with JW3, is awarded to the best book, fiction or non-fiction, to translate the idea of Jewishness to the general reader.

The prize winner will be announced on the evening of February 16, during an event with the short-listed authors.
