EVERYTHING YET NOTHING

2012 paris literary prize

Shakespeare and Company has a long-standing tradition of opening its doors to aspiring writers and in keeping with that philosophy, the 10,000€ Paris Literary Prize is open to writers from around the world who have not yet published a book. We believe that a prize of this kind can make a difference in launching a new writer’s career.

The 2012 Paris Literary Prize will be awarded for an unpublished novella. A submitted novella must be a sustained narrative with a minimum word count of 20,000 and maximum of 30,000.
