LONDON — Olga Tokarczuk, the Nobel Prize-winning Polish novelist, is among five female writers shortlisted for this year’s International Booker Prize, arguably the world’s most important award for fiction translated into English.
Tokarczuk is nominated for “The Books of Jacob,” along with translator Jennifer Croft, just four years after the pair won the same prize for “Flights.”
