The Malaparte Prize is an Italian literary award recognizing the work of internationally renowned writers who express in their work and lives an aesthetic sensibility allied with the spirit and role of the island of Capri as a center of literary dialogue.
Very honored to be the recipient of the 2016 Malaparte Prize for My Name is Lucy Barton, with thanks to my Italian publisher Einaudi and to president of the jury, Raffaele la Capria.
