Every Contender in the Morning News's Tournament of Books, 2005-2024 - Page 2

In 2005, the website The Morning News started the Tournament of Books, partially as a way to poke fun at putting literary works in competition with each other, but partially in earnest, with serious discussion and debate. 2024 marks its twentieth iteration(!), so in celebration here's a list of all the competitors, including ones from the play-in round introduced in 2016. Several of these have gone on to win Pulitzer Prizes for Fiction, the Man Booker Prize, and the National Book Awards. Have fun with this!
