"Edward St Aubyn, whose books are to be turned into a drama series involving Benedict Cumberbatch and Sam Mendes, said that writers had an unhealthy obsession with literary prizes."

Quote from an article from The Times about The Booker Prize with quotes from Edward St Aubyn. Benedict has been mentioning these books in interviews for a while. Exciting to see that something has progressed from that! http://www.thetimes.co.uk/tto/arts/books/cheltenham-festival/article4229154.ece?CMP=OTH-gnws-standard-2014_10_06
