Tiger by Polly Clark
Published by Riverrun Books
Judges Comments:
'This journey into the last wilderness for a damaged and intriguing heroine goes for the jugular in every way, with a lyrical and visceral evocation of place and people that seized and awed the judges.'
Riverrun's Comments:
'Tiger has been described beautifully as less a novel than the force of nature caught in fiction. It’s an achievement worthy of a Saltire Prize shortlisting.'
Polly Clark:
'I’m so excited and honoured that Tiger has been shortlisted for the Saltire Fiction Book of the Year! I’m so proud of this book and of being a Scottish writer. Thank you.'
