The German Book Prize is awarded to the novel of the year by the Börsenverein des Deutschen Buchhandels Foundation. The award ceremony takes place annually at the start of the Frankfurt Book Fair. The award is intended to attract cross-border literary attention and thus help German-speaking authors to become better known. Since its creation in 2005, the German Book Prize has stood for an independent and expert determination of the winners.


The application process begins at the same time

There are still eight months until the German Book Prize is awarded and the Frankfurt Book Fair begins. Now the Akademie Deutscher Buchpreis has announced its participants to its jury. This happened parallel to the start of the application process for the German Book Prize 2019.

Exhibition period: Wednesday, October 16 - Sunday, October 20

The annually newly elected and independent experts of the literature jury include:
