Britain’s Samantha Harvey won the 2024 Booker Prize for her novel ‘Orbital’, a story about a single day aboard the International Space Station which she wrote during COVID-19 lockdowns. The novel, Harvey’s fifth, was the top selling book on the shortlist of six finalists and has sold more copies than the past three Booker Prize winners combined, as readers lapped up her depiction of earth’s beauty as seen from space.
