Four finalists named for the Prix des Deux Magots 2026
The Paris café prize, worth 7,700 euros and a year of meals at the table, will be awarded on 5 October.
The Prix des Deux Magots has announced that four books have made its 2026 shortlist, according to Livres Hebdo. The trade publication did not name the finalists in its report.
The prize, one of the older fixtures of the French literary calendar, carries an award of 7,700 euros along with a year of meals at a reserved table — a tradition tied to the prize's origin at the Café des Deux Magots in Saint-Germain-des-Prés, Paris.
The winner will be revealed on Monday 5 October at the café itself, Livres Hebdo reports. Further details on the shortlisted titles were not included in the source material.
