The Michael Braude Award for Light Verse is a biennial award given for light verse in the English language, regardless of the author's nationality.

Black Spring Press is an independent English publishing house founded in the early 1980s.  The first Black Spring publication was a reprint of Anais Nin's "D.H. Lawrence: An Unprofessional Study", which on its first publication in 1932 had been only the second study of Lawrence's work to appear.  This was followed by Patrick Kearney's "The Paris Olympia Press: An Annotated Bibliography", which carried a Foreword by Maurice Girodias.  Later publications included translations of early Soviet short stories and an epistolary first novel from the French; Nick Cave's debut novel, "And the Ass Saw the Angel", which had been commissioned five years previously; reprints of Leonard Cohen's novels together with new editions of his titles "Book of Mercy" and "Death of a Lady's Man"; and the memoirs of Carolyn Cassady, "" In the early 1990s Black Spring revived the reputation of the black comedy thriller writer Kyril Bonfiglioli by gathering his three previously-published novels featuring art-dealer and bon viveur Charlie Mortdecai and issuing them as "The Mortdecai Trilogy"; this was followed by a reprint of Bonfiglioli's historical romp "All the Tea in China" and first publication of "The Great Mortdecai Moustache Mystery", left lacking its final chapter at the time of the author's death but now completed by Craig Brown.  More recently the company has revived work by Patrick Hamilton, Alexander Baron and Julian Maclaren-Ross. Angel Pavement is a novel by J. B.

Ackerley Prize for Autobiography) is awarded annually by English PEN for a literary autobiography of excellence, written by an author of British nationality and published during the preceding year.  The winner receives £3,000.  In recent years, the winner has been announced at the annual English PEN summer party. The Baileys Women's Prize for Fiction (previously called Women's Prize for Fiction (2013), Orange Prize for Fiction (1996–2006 & 2009–12) and Orange Broadband Prize for Fiction (2007–2008)) is one of the United Kingdom's most prestigious literary prizes, annually awarded to a female author of any nationality for the best original full-length novel written in English, and published in the United Kingdom in the preceding year.  The prize was originally due to be launched in 1994 with the support of Mitsubishi but public controversy over the merits of the award caused the sponsorship to be withdrawn.  Funding from Orange, a UK mobile network operator and Internet service provider, allowed the prize to be launched in 1996 by a committee of male and female "journalists, reviewers, agents, publishers, librarians, booksellers", including current Honorary Director Kate Mosse. Daniel Kehlmann (born 13 January 1975) is a German-language author of both Austrian and German nationality.  His work "Die Vermessung der Welt" (translated into English by Carol Brown Janeway as "Measuring the World", 2006) is the best selling novel in the German language since Patrick Süskind's "Perfume" was released in 1985.  Kehlmann's works, and in particular "Die Vermessung der Welt", are heavily influenced by magical realism and represent a dramatic shift from the goals of the influential Group 47.  He was awarded the Heimito von Doderer Prize for the novel. The Baileys Women's Prize for Fiction (previously with sponsor names Orange Prize for Fiction (1996–2006 and 2009–12) and Orange Broadband Prize for Fiction (2007–08)) is one of the United Kingdom's most prestigious literary prizes.  It is awarded annually to a female author of any nationality for the best original full-length novel written in English and published in the United Kingdom in the preceding year. The Italian, or the Confessional of the Black Penitents (1797) is a Gothic novel written by the English author Ann Radcliffe.  It is the last book Radcliffe published during her lifetime (she would go on to write the novel "Gaston de Blondeville", which was published posthumously in 1826).  "The Italian" has a dark, mysterious and somber tone, and concerns the themes of love, devotion and persecution by the Holy Inquisition.  The novel also deals with issues prevalent at the time of the French Revolution, such as religion, aristocracy, and nationality.  Radcliffe's renowned use of veiled imagery is considered to have reached its height of sophistication and complexity in "The Italian"; concealment and disguise are central motifs of the novel.  In line with late 18th-century sensibility and its parallel fetishisation of the sublime and the sentimentally pastoral, the heightened emotional states of Radcliffe's characters are often reflected through the pathetic fallacy.  The novel is noted for its extremely effective antagonist, Father Schedoni. The Man Booker International Prize is an international hosted in the United Kingdom.  The introduction of the International Prize to complement the Man Booker Prize was announced in June 2004.  Sponsored by the Man Group, from 2005 until 2015 the award was given every two years to a living author of any nationality for a body of work published in English or generally available in English translation.  It rewarded one author's "continued creativity, development and overall contribution to fiction on the world stage", and was a recognition of the writer's body of work rather than any one title.  The judges for the year compiled their own lists of authors, and submissions were not invited.
