Hawthornden Prize

January 06, 2023

The Hawthornden Prize is a British literary award that was established in 1919 by Alice Warrender,[1] who was born at Hawthornden Castle.[2] Authors under the age of 41[3] are awarded on the quality of their "imaginative literature", which can be written in either poetry or prose.[4] The Hawthornden Committee awards the Prize annually for a work published in the previous twelve months. There have been several gap years without a recipient (1945–57, 1959, 1966, 1971–73, and 1984–87).[5]
