Hilary Mantel wins 2012 Man Booker Prize

That's good news. It always is when a woman-author wins twice in her lifetime an award of this calibre. Before her, only two authors: Peter Carey and J.M. Coetzee have won twice. This time, Mantel got awarded for "Bring Up the Bodies," which, interestingly enough, is a sequel to "Wolf Hall," the book that has brought Mantel her first Booker in 2009.
