Renowned poet Anne Carson and author Thomas King are among the veteran writers nominated for the Governor General’s Literary Awards.
Each will face stiff competition from a rising class of wordsmiths to clinch the $25,000 prize in their respective categories.
Organizers named the finalists for the 2020 awards, which are administered by the Canada Council for the Arts, on Tuesday several months later than the usual fall announcement.
They say the review process was delayed because of the COVID-19 pandemic, and the schedule should return to normal for the 2021 competition.
