2016 Man Booker Prize for Fiction
The Sellout is a searing satire on race relations in contemporary America. This ground-breaking novel is described by the New York Times as a "metaphorical multicultural pot almost too hot to touch", and the Wall Street Journal calls it a "Swiftian satire of the highest order. Like someone shouting fire in a crowded theatre, Mr. Beatty has whispered “Racism” in a postracial world."
