MBE for Bernardine Evaristo
It’s been a more than exciting couple of weeks for HH author Bernardine Evaristo. After her novel Blonde Roots was recently selected as the winner by the youth panel of the Orange Prize 2009, she’s now just revealed that she’s been awarded an MBE by the Queen for her services to literature.
You can read about her reaction on her blog, and we at HH all add to this our warmest congratulations to Bernardine for this well-deserved mark of recognition.
