CAMEROUN :: Cameroon: A trilingual shortlist for the Grand Prix of Literary Associations 2017
The shortlist of the fifth edition of the Grand Prix of Literary Associations has been revealed in the press. Just like the preselections of the current edition, three languages are represented. English, Spanish and French. The finalists are nine in both categories, and from diverse countries accross the world. Some of them are already well known, though their fame cannot guarantee them victory, while others are still making their way to success. And the latters would as well deserve the award, since they’ve been good enough to reach the GPLA 2017 finals, chosen amongst their more than 120 competitors, whose applications were endorsed by 104 associations.
The big question remains hot untill March 26 : who will succeed the winners of the previous edition, Felwine Sarr in the Research category, awarded for his work entitled "Afrotopia", and Eric Mendi in the Belles-lettres, author the novel "Afane – Forêt équatoriale".
