Prix Littéraire Valery Larbaud

The Prix Valery Larbaud is a French literary prize created in 1967, ten years after writer Valery Larbaud's death, by L'Association Internationale des Amis de Valery Larbaud, an organization dedicated to the promotion of his works. The prize is awarded to writers of books the jurists feel "that Larbaud would have loved". It is always awarded in Vichy on the last weekend in May.
