Mozambique: Armando Artur wins José Craveirinha Award | Club of Mozambique

Mozambican poet Armando Artur has won the José Craveirinha Literary Prize for Literature 2020. After receiving the check US$25,000 (about 1.4 million meticais) at the award ceremony in Maputo on Wednesday, Armando Artur was invited to say a few words on the podium. First, the poet fulfilled protocol by greeting the guests in the front row and the confreres in general. Then, speaking slowly, as if writing a poem, he confessed that he was, naturally, very happy to receive the José Craveirinha Literary Prize 2020. “I know that prizes come, in a way, to mark the trajectory or the work of a writer, but I also think that no prize makes a writer great or small. Either you are or you are not.”
