Amarte Literatuurprijs

Stichting Amarte Fonds
The Amarte Foundation is proud to launch the first-ever Amarte Literature Prize. This new award has been created to give writers and essayists the chance to highlight a peer's book that sets a new direction or leads to new thoughts. In short, a book that inspires and challenges.The prize consists of a substantial cash prize of €15,000 and an essayistic reflection to be published in the summer issue of the Nederlandse Boekengids. The winner will be announced at a private awards ceremony on 26 March.The jury of the Amarte Literature Prize consists entirely of writers and essayists.
