The Awards That Were Always Missing

Every year, hundreds of books are published in English about Greece. Thrillers. Historical fiction. Romance. Literary fiction. Written by authors from around the world who have spent years researching Greece, traveling to Greece, and falling in love with Greece.

Not one major English-language award has ever had a category for them. Every significant prize is based in New York or London.

None of them in the Mediterranean. None of them has a category for the writer who set their thriller in Santorini, their historical novel in Byzantine Constantinople, or their literary fiction on a Greek island.

The Homer Awards were built to change that.
