WOMEN'S PRIZE FOR FICTION 2019 NEWSLETTER And this year's winner is... We are delighted to announce that Tayari Jones has won this year's Women's Prize for Fiction with An American Marriage. Professor Kate Williams, our Chair of Judges, said: “This is an exquisitely intimate portrait of a marriage shattered by racial injustice. It is a story of love, loss and loyalty, the resilience of the human spirit painted on a big political canvas – that shines a light on today’s America. We all loved this brilliant book.” Find out more > Read an interview with Tayari Jones here > Experience the moment of the winner's announcement Want to hear Tayari's winner's speech and feel the buzz at our awards party tonight in Bedford Square Gardens, London?
