The Booker Prize Shortlist & Winners 1969-2000
For people who are interested in a long-term challenge to read all of the Booker Prize longlisted books, but before 2001 there were only shortlisted books so I am going to separate these into two different lists. Please see the pinned comment for the 2001+ companion list link and the winners for each year!

Pitch Black Comedy
"Turn me over, I'm done on this side!" —St. Lawrence, whilst roasting on a spit
Gallows humor, black comedy, l'humour noir — whatever you call it, this is the place for it. This list includes André Breton's seminal anthology of dark humor, a number of the works excerpted in this anthology, and beyond. You can find a link to the complete contents of Breton's anthology in the comments.
Want more weird humor? Check out my list Nitpicky Neuroticism (Comedy Edition)!
