Grand Prix du Roman Métis narrows its 2026 field to twelve
After an opening list of thirty novels, the juries of the Grand prix du Roman Métis and the Prix du Roman Métis des Lecteurs de la Ville de Saint-Denis have each kept twelve titles, according to Livres Hebdo.

The two juries began this year's cycle with a first selection of thirty novels. Each has now cut that list to twelve, Livres Hebdo reports, marking the second stage of a process that will eventually name four finalists for every prize.
Those finalist lists are expected in the coming weeks, ahead of the prize ceremony set for 1 December, according to the same source.
Livres Hebdo's report does not name the twelve titles retained for either selection, so no further detail on the books or their authors can be given here.
