The Griffin Poetry Prize is the world's largest international prize for a single book of poetry written in, or translated into English. There are no Canadians on this year's shortlist. 

This prize was established in 1994 to honour the life and career of Bronwen Wallace, a poet and short story writer. This is the first year that the prize is extended to include writers of creative nonfiction.

You could win $6,000 from the Canada Council for the Arts, a two-week writing residency at the Banff Centre and have your work published on CBC Books.
