Halldis Moren Vesaas Prize
The Halldis Moren Vesaas Prize (Norwegian: Halldis Moren Vesaas-prisen)[1] is a Norwegian literary prize which is awarded annually to a Norwegian for lyric or other poetry, which through the quality and magnitude of the work has established a significant voice in Norwegian poetry.
The prize was established by the publisher Olaf Norlis Bokhandel upon Halldis Moren Vesaas' death in 1995.
The jury consists of a manager from Norlis, the literary director from another publisher and the current head of the Norwegian Writers' Center.
The prize has not been awarded since 2007.
