Emma Donoghue — 2 titles in the rankings, first published between 2010 and 2016. They average 7.8 — level with the catalogue as a whole.
Editor’s note Irish-Canadian novelist. Room, by far her most read, is narrated by five-year-old Jack, who has spent his whole life in a locked shed with his mother and believes it is the whole world; seen through his eyes, the horror becomes bearable and the escape unforgettable. It was shortlisted for the Booker Prize and she wrote the screenplay for the film. The Wonder, about an English nurse sent to watch an Irish girl who is said to live without eating, rates a little lower.
