The Stanford University Libraries

and the William Saroyan Foundation

jointly award the William Saroyan

International Prize for Writing, a

competition for newly-published

books. The prize is intended to

encourage new or emerging writers,

rather than to recognize established literary

figures. The prize commemorates the life,

legacy and intentions of William Saroyan -

author, artist, dramatist,

and composer.

The 2008 prize is timed to coincide with the Saroyan Centennial, celebrating the
100th anniversary of William Saroyan's birth. For more information on Saroyan Centennial events,
