One of the titles on the longlist for this year’s prize for literary debuts is up to readers. Please make your nominations below
The shelves are full to bursting, the judges hunched in concentration as they pore over submissions for the 2015 Guardian first book award. They’re looking to fill nine slots on this year’s longlist, to be announced in mid-August. But for the tenth, it’s over to you - and here’s your chance to tell us about the new voices we may have missed, the debuts so dynamic they demand to be in contention for the 2015 prize.
Last year the readers’ selection was May-Lan Tan’s unsettling collection of short stories, Things to Make and Break, with the Anglo-Breton poet Claire Trévien’s The Shipwrecked House being chosen the year before. These follow poetry from Sarah Jackson and the inaugural readers’ choice, Juan Pablo Villalobos’s novel Down the Rabbit Hole.
