Nordic Council Literature Prize
The Nordic Council Literature Prize has been awarded since 1962 and is given to a work of fiction written in one of the Nordic languages. This may be a novel, a play, or a collection of poems, short stories, or essays that are of a high literary and artistic quality. The prize is designed to generate interest in the literature and language of neighbouring countries, and in the Nordic cultural community.
The Nordic Council awards five prizes every year: The Literature Prize, the Film Prize, the Music Prize, the Environment Prize, and the Children and Young People’s Literature Prize.
The Nordic Council Literature Prize 2018 goes to Auður Ava Ólafsdóttir for the novel Ör (Hotel Silence, Pushkin Press 2018, translator Brian FitzGibbon),
