No, I haven't read it, but I was pretty surprised that Chesil Beach didn't win. Does winning the Booker Prize make that much difference to book sales though? I heard that as of a month ago, the entire shortlist had only sold 20,000 copies, McEwan making up 10,000 on his own. The Booker may be presigious, but are authors wanting to sell more books better to be on the Richard and Judy Bookclub list?
