The Caine Prize for African Writing is Africa's leading literary prize and is awarded to a short story by an African writer published in English, whether in Africa or elsewhere. Each year the winning story and shortlisted entries are collected and published in one volume. This year's winner is Mary Watson for Jungfrau.
The Caine Prize is a springboard for some of the best talent in African writing. Previous winners include Leila Aboulela, whose second novel was longlisted for the Orange Prize for Fiction 2006, and Helon Habila and Segun Afolabi, whose novels are published by Penguin and Random House, respectively.
