UK writer Samantha Harvey wins 2024 Booker Prize with space novel

British writer Samantha Harvey wins the 2024 Booker Prize, a prestigious English-language literary award, for her novel tracking six astronauts in space for 24 hours. Harvey's "Orbital" follows two men and four women from Japan, Russia, the United States, Britain and Italy aboard the International Space Station and touches on mourning, desire and the climate crisis. Judges unanimously decided the British author should receive the prize, along with the cash prize, which Harvey says she hopes to spend on a new bike and a trip to Japan, where she once lived.
