With the aim of stimulating new poetic writing in the Americas, Casa de América announces the 22nd Casa de América Prize for American Poetry, with special attention to poems that open up or explore new perspectives and innovative themes.
National authors from any of the countries of the Americas are eligible for this prize, with works written in Spanish, rigorously unpublished, that are not pending a decision in any other prize and whose rights have not been assigned to any publisher in the world. Likewise, the works submitted to the competition must have a minimum of 300 verses and their subject must be free, and must be sent by e-mail, only in PDF format, in which case two different addresses will be used: the first, premiodepoesia@casamerica.es, for the competing work with the title and the corresponding pseudonym; and the second, premiodepoesia.plica@casamerica.es with the title of the competing work, name, photocopy of identity document or proof of nationality, the author’s address and telephone number, as well as a brief curriculum vitae.
