The jury for the Gouincourt francophone prize, established in 2025 to honour a female author of general literature addressing lesbian topics, has released its second selection.
Ten titles have been chosen for the shortlist, each meeting the prize’s specific thematic criteria.
The final award ceremony is scheduled for 10 November and will take place at La Bellevilloise, a cultural venue in Paris.
The prize, still in its early years, aims to highlight and promote lesbian narratives within the broader literary landscape.
