Suzannah Lipscomb Instagram – The Women’s Prize for Non-Fiction 2024 has been quite the event in my life.
Or, rather, series of events. My fellow judges and I read for it from August 2023, met from October, announced our wonderful longlist of 16 books in February and our shortlist of six superb books a month later. And this week, as chair of judges, I had the honour of announcing the inaugural winner of this important new prize.
So here’s the journey in pictures:
