Yes, and despite my personal rejection of constitutional monarchy, it is that "commonwealth" that probably gives me some affection towards the Prize too.
For the sake of transparency, I should point out that Coetzee won both of his prizes before moving to Australia or becoming an Australian citizen (he was in South Africa and South African at both times).
Cheers,
