The Hans Christian Andersen Special Literature Award
In September, Stephen King received The Hans Christian Andersen Special Literature Award, presented by The Hans Christian Andersen Literature Committee. The award is given for King's “unique ability – similar to Hans Christian Andersen – to use imaginative storytelling to explore the dark and sinister sides of human life, while captivating millions of readers worldwide.”
The award ceremony will be marked at an event on November 17th in Odense, where the currently in theaters film The Life of Chuck , based on King's short story of the same name, will be shown.
This is the first time that the committee has awarded a special prize. The prize will be presented privately to Stephen King by the committee chairman. Stephen King will not be attending the event in Odense.
