The gold standard in fiction.

The creme de la CRÈME.

We celebrate fiction that sets the standard, championing the distinctively fresh work of today’s authors. All year long, we bring forward the best, but it’s our members who crown the best of the best. To this author, we award our golden Lolly.

The statue is GOLD, the prize is GREEN.

With our prize, we honor not just the best fiction, but the people who write it. Along with our golden Lolly, the winning author will receive $25,000, and all five finalists will receive $10,000 each.

No critics.
No committees.
JUST READERS.

While most awards are decided by experts, academics, or the press, we turn to the most dedicated readers we know.
