Stresa Prize

The Stresa Prize (Italian: Premio Stresa [ˈprɛːmjo ˈstreːza]) is a literary award prize founded in 1976 by a group of intellectuals, including Mario Bonfantini, Mario Soldati, Gianfranco Lazzaro, Franco Esposito and Piero Chiara. In the early years, the jury also included writers and intellectuals such as Carlo Bo, Giovanni Spadolini, Giorgio Barberi Squarotti and Primo Levi. It is reserved for works in Italian published in Italy and Switzerland.[1]

History

It did not take place from 1985 until 1995 when it was taken over by the Pro Loco Tourist Association of Stresa, which takes care until today.

Selection process
