Best of the James Tait Black

In 2012, as well as awarding the prizes as usual, we made a special award for the "Best of the James Tait Black" in fiction.

The award celebrated the fiction winners over the past 93 years, as part of the University's 250th English Literature anniversary.

The "Best of the James Tait Black" has been won by Angela Carter for Nights at the Circus.
