Prémio PEN/Faulkner de Ficção

O Prémio PEN/Faulkner de Ficção é atribuído anualmente pela Fundação PEN/Faulkner aos autores vivos norte-americanos dos melhores trabalhos de ficção do ano.[1] O vencedor recebe 15,000 dólares americanos e cada um dos nomeados recebe 5000 dólares americanos. Os finalistas lêm as suas obras na cerimónia de apresentação na Great Hall da Biblioteca Folger Shakespeare em Washington, D.C.. A organização afirma que é o "maior prémio revisto por um júri do país."[1] O prémio iniciou-se em 1981.[2]

A Fundação PEN/Faulkner é uma consequência da generosidade de William Faulkner na utilização do valor pecuniário do seu Prémio Nobel de 1949 para a criação da Fundação William Faulkner; um dos objectivos de caridade da fundação era "criar um fundo de apoio e encorajamento a novos escritores de ficção." O primeiro prémio da fundação para um "primeiro romance notável" chamado Prémio da Fundação William Faulkner, foi atribuído a John Knowles por A Separate Peace em 1961. A fundação foi extinta em 1970.

Mary Lee Settle foi uma das fundadores do prémio PEN/Faulkner após a controvérsia do National Book Award de 1979, quando a PEN votou um boicote a este prémio com o fundamento que este era muito comercial.[2][3] É afiliado com a organização dos escritores International PEN.

O prémio é um dos muitos prémios da PEN patrocinado pelas afiliadas da International PEN em mais de 145 centros PEN por todo o mundo.
