Prix Françoise Sagan

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The prix Françoise Sagan is a French literary award established in 2010 by Denis Westhoff [fr], the son of Françoise Sagan.

The Prize

[edit]

Awarded at the beginning of June, the Prix Françoise Sagan rewards "an author never yet rewarded, not even selected in recent months. It distinguishes a work in French and is meant to be innovative and focused on a work in progress "thus privileging" a revelation to a talent already confirmed." The selection of the titles in competition is established by the jurors, each proposing one or Two books that can compete.

Jurys

[edit]

The jury of the prize, chaired by Denis Westhoff for the first edition, is composed in a moving way according to the years. In addition, the winner automatically joins the jury of the following year and becomes its president.
