説明
The Max Frisch Prize of the City of Zürich, created in 1996, is usually awarded every four years to writers in German-speaking countries. Named after the Swiss writer Max Frisch (1911–1991), the main prize is endowed with 50,000 Swiss francs. Since 2018 an additional sponsorship award (Förderpreis) of 10,000 CHF was introduced to support younger writers. The award honors authors whose work addresses fundamental issues of democratic society in an artistically uncompromising manner. The Max Frisch Foundation at ETH Zürich is responsible for judging and determining the winners; the City of Zürich finances and hosts the award.
