Best Answer

Half a Life was written by V.S. Naipaul, but he didn't actually win the 2001 Man Booker Prize for Half a Life; Half a Life was longlisted for the prize. Naipaul had previously been shortlisted for the 1979 Man Booker Prize for his A Bend in the River, and won the 1971 Man Booker Prize for his In a Free State. Naipaul was a contender for the Man Booker International Prize in 2009.
