Samantha Harvey Wins Booker Prize for Space-Station Novel Orbital
Briefly

"In offering us a vision of our planet as borderless and interlinked, Harvey makes the case for the futility of territorial conflicts, and the need for co-operation and respect for our shared humanity."
"Harvey begins and ends with astonishment," James Wood wrote in his review for The New Yorker.
"Orbital is the first Booker Prize winner to be set in space and the second-shortest book to be awarded the prize."
The book follows six astronauts from different nations, capturing their daily lives and the awe of being high above Earth.
