Booker Prize (Canada)

The Booker Prize (Canada) is an esteemed literary award recognizing outstanding Canadian novels. It celebrates exceptional storytelling, craftsmanship, and originality in contemporary Canadian fiction. Typically awarded annually, the prize aims to elevate Canadian writers and bring national and international attention to their work. Winning or being shortlisted can significantly boost an author's readership and reputation. While the original Booker Prize is shared between the UK and Commonwealth countries, Canada has its own dedicated Canadian Booker Prize to highlight the country's literary talent.
