A writer living in London, Ont., has joined two-time Man Booker winner Australian author Peter Carey on the short list for one of the world's most influential literary prizes. Emma Donoghue, who was born in Dublin but has lived in Canada for about a decade, was nominated for her novel Room, just out in the U.K. and Ireland and to be published in North America in mid-September, according to the author's website. Howard Jacobson, Andrea Levy, Damon Galgut and Tom McCarthy make up the field of six authors on the short list for the 2010 Man Booker Prize.
