The Slap wins Commonwealth Writers Prize


Australian author Christos Tsiolkas has won the £10,000 Commonwealth writers’ prize for his controversial novel about the consequences of hitting someone else’s child. The Slap is also shortlisted for the Miles Franklin award. God forgive me, but I have wanted to belt a large number of other people’s children in my six-year career as a father.
