William Saroyan International Prize

The Stanford University Libraries are currently accepting submissions for the 2016 William Saroyan International Prize for books published in 2014 and 2015. Works of fiction (novels, short story anthologies, or drama) or non-fiction (biography, history, or memoirs) are eligible. Books must be written in English, but English translations of previously published works will not be accepted. Self-published books will be accepted. The prize is intended to foster the writing of newer authors, so in general, authors with four or more published books will not be considered. Two prizes of $5,000 will be awarded, one each in fiction and non-fiction.

Entry fee: $50

Deadline: January 29, 2016
