4 | Last year, just after Jamaican author Marlon James‘ new book “A Brief History of Seven Killings” came out, I remember having a conversation with Marina Salandy-Brown, the founder of the NGC Bocas Lit Fest, one of the Caribbean region's most lauded literary festivals. | Tamin'ny taona lasa, taoriana kelin'ny nivoahan'ny boky vaovaon'ilay Jamaikana mpanoratra, Marlon James, “Tantara Fohy Momba ny Vono-Olona Fito“, tsaroako aho fa niresaka tamin'i Marina Salandy-Brown, ilay mpanorina ny NGC Bocas Lit Fest, iray amin'ireo hetsika fampisehoana haisoratra ankalazaina indrindra any amin'ny faritra Karaiba. |
5 | She was practically giddy over the brilliance of his writing and made this stunning prediction: “I think he has a real shot at winning The Man Booker Prize.” | Saika fanina tamin'ny famirapiratry ny sorany izy, ary nanao izao faminaniana mahagaga izao: “Mihevitra aho fa manana ny tena fahafahana hahazo Ny Loka Man Booker izy”. |
6 | On October 13, James was indeed named the winner of the 2015 Man Booker Prize for Fiction. | Tamin'ny 13 Oktobra, nahazo ny loka Man Booker 2015 Ho An'ny Tantara Foronina tokoa i James. |
7 | The Man Booker Prize is one of the most prestigious literary awards. | Iray amin'ireo loka ara-literatiora malaza indrindra Ny Loka Man Booker. |
8 | Quite apart from the £50,000 prize money that goes along with it, Man Booker acknowledges each year the best English-language novel - in the opinion of its judges - that is published in the United Kingdom. | Ankoatra ny loka vola £50.000 izay omena miaraka aminy, manaiky ny tantara tsara indrindra amin'ny teny Anglisy isan-taona ny Man Booker - araky ny hevitry ny mpitsarany - izay mivoaka any Angletera. |
9 | “A Brief History of Seven Killings” uses the assassination attempt on Bob Marley, referred to as “the singer” throughout the novel, as an anchor point from which to explore issues of race and class in Jamaica, as well as the entangled political relationship between the United States and the Caribbean which helped to create an island embroiled in gang warfare and gun violence. | Ampiasain'ny “Tantara Fohy Momba Ny Vono-Olona Fito” ny fikasana hamono an'i Bob Marley , fantatra amin'ny anarana hoe “ilay mpihira” manerana ny tantara, toy ny vatofantsika mba hijerena ny olana amin'ny firazanana sy ny saranga any Jamaika, ary koa ny fifandraisana ara-politika mifamatopatotra eo amin'ny Etazonia sy ny Karaiba izay nanampy hamorona nosy iray voasarika amin'ny adin'ny samy jiolahy sy ny herisetra mitam-piadiana. |
10 | The book is intricately crafted, with more than 75 characters, and intense; the strength of the narrative caused the Man Booker judges to come to a unanimous decision in less than two hours. | Natao tamin'ny fomba matotra ny boky, misy mpilalao mihoatra ny 75, ary mahery vaika, ny herin'ny tantara no nanosika ny mpitsara ny Man Booker naka fanapahan-kevitra niraisana tao anatin'ny ora roa latsaka. |
11 | Social media users and literary enthusiasts across the region were buoyant at the news. | Faly tamin'ny vaovao ny mpampiasa media sosialy sy ny mpankafy haisoratra manerana ny faritra. |
12 | On Facebook, Charlene Thompson saw the win as a major accomplishment for the region: | Tao amin'ny Facebook, nahita ilay fandresena ho toy ny fahombiazana manan-danja ho an'ny faritra i Charlene Thompson: |
