The prix Françoise Sagan is a French literary award established in 2010 by Denis Westhoff [fr], the son of Françoise Sagan.
The Prize
Awarded at the beginning of June, the Prix Françoise Sagan rewards "an author never yet rewarded, not even selected in recent months. It distinguishes a work in French and is meant to be innovative and focused on a work in progress "thus privileging" a revelation to a talent already confirmed." The selection of the titles in competition is established by the jurors, each proposing one or Two books that can compete.
Jurys
The jury of the prize, chaired by Denis Westhoff for the first edition, is composed in a moving way according to the years. In addition, the winner automatically joins the jury of the following year and becomes its president.
