THE VOICE OF AFRICA

The Voice of Africa is an award made possible by the Swedish publishing houses Ordfront, Norstedis, Raben & Sjogren and the Book-of-the Month Club to honour the Swedish fiction writer Henning Mankell, whose commitment to Africa, its culture and literature, is well known in Sweden. The purpose of the prize is to promote a knowledge of African literature and its many distinguished writers.
