Post J.K. Rowling announced as recipient of first H.C. Andersen Literature Prize

The Copenhagen Post reports that it has been announced that J.K. Rowling will be the recipient of the inaugural H.C. Andersen Literature Prize, named after the famous Danish author, Hans Christian. The prize will be presented in Odense next year, according to a local newspaper. J.K. Rowling will reportedly collect the award in person.

Quote:
Danish-Brazilian businessman Jens Olesen is a member of the H.C. Andersen Advisory Board, which is behind the award, and said that he was delighted Rowling would be able to accept the literature prize in person.

‘Next year might seem like a long way off, but we have to prepare well if we really want to get one of the biggest writers of our time to the city,’ said Olesen.
The prize is designed to be given to someone whose achievements are comparable to those of Hans Christian Andersen.

The ceremony will take place on October 19th 2010.

I wonder how they found it out. Didn't know that JKR is cutting silhouettes.

Congratulations, Jo.



But I do believe Hans Christian Andersen was Danish, not Dutch.

Well, i've currently lost the count of how many awards Jo already has won with her HP-books

However, I don't want to be rude to Ms. EmmaRiddle, but H.C. Andersen (full name indeed was Hans Christian Andersen) is not a famous Dutch author - we Dutchmen can only dream of an author of his kind, but we have other fantastic authors in Holland - but Mr. Andersen was a famous Danish author who died In 1875 in his own Danmark.

But, back on topic: Congratulations to Jo!! Another great prize for a FAN bloody TASTIC epic story!!

Sorry. I went by what the newspaper said. I have some of his books but I'm not savvy enough to have noticed that myself.

I love Hans Christian Andersen (I even own the movie with Danny Kay). So I think it's cool that she's receiving such an award and the inaugural one at that. I thinks it's marvelous and it is true that she has achieved comparable status with Mr. Anderson ... I do think the HP books are classics and will pass the test of time.

Was there any doubt she would get it? :p
She's amazing, and has achieved so much, for both herself, and for all the charities she puts into.

Keep being awesome, Jo! <3
