.....is an French Muslim of Algerian descent. Kind of ironic as the winner is entitled to go there and drink a free glass of wine for a year :rolleyes:
Prix de Flore - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Prix de Flore is a French literary prize founded in 1994 by Frédéric Beigbeder. The aim of the prize is to reward youthful authors and is judged by a panel of journalists. It is awarded yearly in November[1], at the Café de Flore in Paris. The prize only applies to French-language literature, even though the author does not have to be French. Bruce Benderson was the first non-French author to receive the prize, in 2004, for the novel Autobiographie érotique (released in English as The Romanian: Story of an Obsession). The laureate of the Prix de Flore wins about 6,000 Euros and is entitled to drink a glass of Pouilly-Fumé, a white wine from the Loire region of France, at the Café de Flore every day for a year. The laureate's name is engraved on the glass.
Can't remember the name of the winner as I heard it on here and they doesn't look like they archived it that I can see: Newslink | Deutsche Welle
