Accepting the David Dan Prize

I don't know how many of you have been following this, but

Amitav Ghosh and Margaret Atwood just won, and accepted the David Dan prize, from Israel.

Now this is a matter of personal choice, of course. No one denies that being offered, and accepting a public prize of this nature is well within the realms of personal choice. But.

Nice piece. I have been following this on Kafila myself.

(Also, I am a little shocked to see Hindu screw up the names - they have labeled Atwood as Ghosh, and vice versa! Journo rant over :)
