The Yale Review and Yale University Press are launching the Yale Nonfiction Book Prize, which they describe as “a biennial international prize that recognizes artful, innovative, and intellectually probing book-length works of nonfiction.” The prize is open to writers who have not yet published a book of nonfiction and includes a $15,000 advance, publication by Yale University Press within the Yale Nonfiction Prize Series, and first-serial excerpt placement in The Yale Review. The first judge is writer and Yale Review editor Meghan O’Rourke. Submission information can be found here.
