Posted on May 10, 2021
The National Book Council is publishing the list of eligible titles that have been submitted to the National Book Prize and Terramaxka Prize 2021, for books published in 2020.
All books have been screened for eligibility by the adjudication board according to respective categories. In total there have been 154 eligible submissions, 95 titles across the eight categories of the National Book Prize, and 59 titles across six categories of the Terramaxka Prize.
From this year, the Translation category has been broadened to include works of non-fiction, poetry and drama in Maltese translation, as well as works of fiction. Besides this change, the category for Poetry is once again considering poetry collections written in Maltese or English within the same category. The eight categories of the National Book Prize for adults are for: Novels, Short Stories, Poetry, Drama, Literary Non-Fiction, Translation, General Research, and Biographical and Historiographic Research. The six categories of the Terramaxka Prize comprise three categories for original works for children and adolescents (0–7, 8–12 and 13–16 year olds), and another three categories for translated works for the same age groups.
In the coming months, the members of the board will be reading the submissions in order to select the titles for the National Book Prize and Terramaxka shortlist. The shortlist will be published on the National Book Council’s website and will also appear in a number of local newspapers.
The winners of the Terramaxka Prize will be announced during an awards ceremony which will be taking place during the official opening of the Malta Book Festival on 2 November 2021. The winners of the National Book Prize will be announced later in December at an awards ceremony of which details will be communicated in due time.
