Two Australian have made the short list for the Lost Man Booker Prize.
The Sydney Morning Herald says Patrick White, nominated for The Vivisector and Shirley Hazzard's The Bay of Noon fell through the gap when the 1970 prize was moved form April to November, and only books published in that year were eligible.
The winner will be announced on May 19, chosen by a public vote.
