Marian Engel Award
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Marian Engel Award is presented each year by the Writers' Trust of Canada in memory of the Canadian writer Marian Engel. The award goes to a female Canadian novelist who is in the middle of her career. It is awarded for the entire body of the recipient's work.
In 2003, the Writer's Trust instituted a companion award, the Timothy Findley Award, to honour male writers.
