AI explanation
Kiran Desai won the Man Booker Prize in 2006 for 'The Inheritance of Loss'. She was notably the youngest woman to win the prize at the time, and her mother Anita Desai had also been shortlisted for the Booker three times without winning. Arundhati Roy won the Booker for a different novel ('The God of Small Things'), and Tagore never won a Booker (the prize didn't exist in his era).
