The Ingrid Jonker Prize committee is delighted to announce the winner of the 2014 Ingrid Jonker Prize for a debut collection of English poetry: Karin Schimke, for Bare & Breaking. Volumes published in English in 2012 or 2013 were eligible. (Next year’s prize will be for Afrikaans debuts published in 2013 and 2014.)
A notable fact is that all the collections submitted for 2014’s prize were published by Modjaji.
