The Cook by Wayne Macauley is the winner of SPUNC’s Most Underrated Book Award 2012.

This inaugural award aims to shine a light on some of the fantastic titles that are released by independent publishers and members of the Small Press Network (SPUNC) that, for whatever reason, did not receive their fair dues. It was judged by Amy Espeseth, Bethanie Blanchard and Andrew Wrathall.

The shortlist for the award included The Dark Wet by Jess Huon (Giramondo), I Hate Martin Amis et al. by Peter Barry (Transit Lounge) and Two Steps Forward by Irma Gold.
