The Booker Prize, Merman & Kevin Thomas talk books

The Booker Prize Foundation has commissioned Mermade, digital sister company of Merman, to create a series of short films to promote this year’s shortlist before the winner is announced on 17th October at The Roundhouse, Camden.

The 12 films, directed by Kevin Thomas, feature six well-known performers, including the actors David Harewood and Anna Friel, musician and broadcaster Jarvis Cocker, as well as Merman’s very own Sharon Horgan, with each performing two excerpts from one of the six shortlisted books.

Thanks DavidReviews for 5* of one of the films and who also reminds us that Merman’s “Bad Sisters” finale is on tomorrow night!
