On a dingy Swiss January morning, rain slithering down the glass…

    A dystopian vision of Dublin riven by civil war, a meditation on trauma and survival set in an unnamed rural community and a formally dazzling study of racial identity in America are among the six novels shortlisted for this year’s Booker prize, which judges hailed on Thursday as “vibrant and electric”.
