Booker Prize 2019

Bernardine Evaristo and Margaret Atwood

  Isn't this a much better cover for "Girl, Woman, Other"?  It seems that the cover was changed after the book won the Booker Prize. 
   Actually, "Girl, Woman, Other" was tied with "Testaments" by Margaret Atwood for the Booker Prize.   Both books are a stretch for me to read.
  A black woman has never won the Booker Prize before and Atwood was very encouraging and supportive of Bernadine Evaristo.
  "The Testaments" follows "The Handmaid's Tale".  Once again, it is set in the totalitarian, patriarchal Gilead and is narrated by Aunt Lydia.  These novels seemed like science fiction but have themes that are resonating today.  Both books are selling extremely well.
