For the past 50 years, Kanagawa Shimbun has held the "Kanagawa Shimbun Literary Contest" for people living and working in the prefecture.The Kanagawa Bungei Prize is a renewal of the competition.By expanding the application qualifications outside the prefecture and using works related to Kanagawa as the recruitment theme, we will launch Kanagawa as a "place where literature is born" nationwide.
In the "U-25 Novel Division" for people under the age of 25, you will be asked to work on the creation in the "three themes" format of rakugo, which is also used as training for writing novels.In this section, members of the Kanagawa Shimbun reader organization "Kanazawa" and general readers will judge.
Please apply for a youth novel that uses the three themes of "landmark," "sea," and "wing."
