Somerset Maugham Award

The Somerset Maugham Award is a British literary prize given each May by the Society of Authors. It is awarded to who they judge to be the best writer or writers under the age of thirty-five of a work of fiction published in the past year. The prize was instituted in 1947 by William Somerset Maugham and thus bears his name: the award is currently £3500, to be spent on foreign travel.
