The International Booker Prize is awarded each year to a single book of fiction translated into English and published in the UK or Ireland, and its prize money is shared equally between the author and the translator. In its current form it dates from 2016, when it replaced a prize given every two years for an author's whole body of work. Its winners run from Han Kang's The Vegetarian and Olga Tokarczuk's Flights to Banu Mushtaq's Heart Lamp, the first book of short stories to win. This list collects the winning books by year.
