The Kiriyama Prize for Fiction

Add to my lists | Print this list

The Kiriyama Prize was established in 1996 to recognize outstanding books about the Pacific Rim and South Asia that encourage greater mutual understanding of and among the peoples and nations of this vast and culturally diverse region. The Prize consists of a cash award of US $30,000, which is split equally between the fiction and nonfiction winners.

(Only one Kiriyama Prize, for fiction OR nonfiction, was awarded in the first three years of the award, 1996, 1997, and 1998. There was no award in 2003.)
