The literary world witnessed an unexpected twist as Hungarian-British author David Szalay clinched the Booker Prize 2025 for his gripping novel Flesh, leaving fans of Kiran Desai heartbroken after her widely anticipated win slipped away. Szalay, whose life spans Canada, London, Lebanon, Hungary, and Vienna, brings a uniquely global voice to his storytelling. Flesh, his sixth novel, traces the rags-to-riches journey of István, a character revealed not through descriptions but through subtle silences and powerful emotional cues. Booker Prize chair Roddy Doyle praised the novel’s masterful use of language and its haunting spaces between words. Szalay, already acclaimed for All That Man Is, continues to cement his reputation as a literary force with international influence.

His latest novel, Flesh, a deeply introspective and earthy story about an immigrant’s journey through life’s physical and emotional landscapes, has earned him one of the most prestigious honors in literature: the Booker Prize for Fiction.
