Not to be outdone by Italy, France shows its respect for JCO with two new awards.
The first is the Prix Bel Ami where JCO’s novel After the Wreck, I Picked Myself Up, Spread My Wings, and Flew Away wins in the young adult category.
The second is the Lucien Barrière Literary Award given to Blonde, which will be awarded at the Deauville American Film Festival.
