The Goldsmiths Prize is launching in 2013. It celebrates those qualities of creative daring associated with the college and will be awarded to fiction that breaks the mould and opens up new possibilities for the novel form.

The annual prize of £10,000 will go to a book that is genuinely novel, and which embodies the spirit of invention that characterises the genre at its best.
