Belfast author Anna Burns won the prestigious Man Booker Prize for fiction last night with 'Milkman', a vibrant, violent story about men, women, conflict and power set during Northern Ireland's years of Catholic-Protestant violence.
Burns is the first writer from the North to win the £50,000 (€57,000) prize, which is open to English-language authors from around the world.
She received her trophy from Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall, during a black-tie ceremony at London's medieval Guildhall.
'Milkman' is narrated by a young woman dealing with an older man who uses family ties, social pressure and political loyalties as weapons of sexual coercion and harassment, set in the 1970s.
