With the Booker Prize 2025 ceremony fast approachi With the Booker Prize 2025 ceremony fast approaching, we’re taking a dip into the archives and revisiting last year’s winner, the profound and beautiful Orbital by Samantha Harvey ✨ It tells the story of one day and sixteen orbits of the Earth, in the company of six astronauts as they reconcile their scientific objectives with existential contemplation and the insistent human buzz emanating from our lonely planet.
