Man Booker Prize 2012: Meet the nominees

Indian poet Jeet Thayil is nominated for his first novel, 'Narcopolis,' set among 1970s heroin addicts.Hilary Mantel is the most favored author to win the 50,000 pound ($82,000) Booker Prize with 'Bring Up the Bodies,' a tale of Tudor treachery which follows the fates of the king's right-hand man, Thomas Cromwell, and the monarch's second wife, Anne Boleyn. It is the second book in a planned trilogy and a sequel to 'Wolf Hall,' for which Mantel won the Booker in 2009. Britain's Will Self - a well-known and often acerbic journalist - is also a strong contender for the century-spanning stream of consciousness 'Umbrella,' a novel about a woman with encephalitis. The book, which has no chapters and few paragraph breaks, was described by the Booker judges as 'moving and draining' and 'much less difficult than it first seems.'
